Scandal Rocks CBS News As Bari Weiss Asks Journalists To Do Journalism

MEDIA·Dec 24, 2025 · BabylonBee.com



U.S. — CBS News has descended into turmoil after new Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss asked the journalists employed there to do journalism.

Internal memos show widespread outrage in response to Weiss's request, with many journalists threatening to resign rather than be forced to do journalism.

"I'd rather die than do journalism," said journalist Matthew Donalds. "If doing journalism is where this station is headed, count me out. I refuse to be a part of asking questions about current events and then reporting what happened. Weiss has crossed the line."

Weiss has reportedly made several harsh demands of CBS News employees, such as asking that they tell the truth. "It's true. I have asked all journalists to please report the news," said Weiss in a statement. "I understand this is a big change, and will take time to implement. There's a lot of resistance to reporting what did happen, instead of what didn't happen. We're going to get there, one step at a time."

At publishing time, Weiss had graciously offered to help any staff who wished to quit to get a new job at CNN.
