CBS "News" In Full Cover-Up Mode As It Cancels Staff-Wide Racial Struggle Session In Favor of Racially Bullying Employees in "Small Groups" to Prevent Leaks

As you may know, CBS "News" was planning to bring in a DEI "trauma specialist" to force its entire staff into a racial struggle session. Because some of the woke staffers got upset that a reporter dared to grill Woke Prophet Ta-Nehisi Coates on his claim that Israel is responsible for the rapes and murders of its citizens, and did not mention "Hamas" once in his book denying Israel's right to even exist. CBS "News" of course took the wokies' side and denounced their own reporter for having the temerity to question a Strong and Empowered Black Man.

We see this so often-- the Strong and Empowered Minorities must be protected at all costs from the very normal, very basic back-and-forth of everyday life. One begins to wonder how Strong and Empowered they really are.

CBS "News" is claiming they're banning tough questions of any Strong and Empowered Black Radicals in order to do MOAR journalism betterer.

The Free Press:

During its editorial meeting on Monday at 9 a.m.--the morning of October 7--the network's top brass all but apologized for the interview to staff, saying that it did not meet the company's "editorial standards." After being introduced by Wendy McMahon, the head of CBS News, Adrienne Roark, who is in charge of news gathering at the network, began her remarks by saying covering a story like October 7 "requires empathy, respect, and a commitment to truth."

After quoting extensively from the CBS News handbook, she said, "We will still ask tough questions. We will still hold people accountable. But we will do so objectively, which means checking our biases and opinions at the door."

"We are here to report news without fear or favor," Roark added. "There are times we fail our audiences and each other. We're in one of those times right now, and it's been growing. And we're at a tipping point. Many of you have reached out to express concerns about recent reporting. Specifically about the CBS Mornings Coates interview last week as well as comments made coming out of some of our correspondents' reporting.

"I want to acknowledge and apologize that it's taken this long to have this conversation.

"This goes way beyond one interview, one comment, one story. This is about preserving the legacy of neutrality and objectivity that is CBS News," she said. "We want every show to be a place for courageous and robust conversations and discussions."

Your reporter had a courageous and robust conversation with a race grifter -- and now you're forcing him to undergo DEI "training" to make sure he never has another courageous and robust conversation with a Person of Privilege again.

The Free Beacon has these details about the DEI "trauma specialist" who would have led the Struggle Session.

CBS News, by far the lowest-rated network in evening news, is still reeling from the backlash surrounding the VP debate, when moderators Margaret Brennan and Norah O'Donnell pestered Vance with dubious "fact checks." On Tuesday, the network is holding an all-staff trauma training session with Dr. Donald Grant, a diversity and mental health consultant, after CBS executives denounced their own anchor, Tony Dokoupil, for challenging author Ta-Nehisi Coates's one-sided account of the Israel-Palestinian conflict. Dr. Grant's social media posts include a blatantly racist image of Sen. Tim Scott (R., S.C.) alongside the caption "Uncle Tim's Cabin," a racially-charged term of disparagement.

Here's what this very professional DEI expert and Race Healer posted:

That is so outrageously racist I didn't want to post it. I thought I'd just link it.

But if this Expert in Race Healing says that this is what Race Healing is, then I must Trust the Science (TM).

Apparently this DEI Racist's spicy tweets were too much for CBS "News."

I guess CBS "News" decided it would make for bad optics to have a black radical blacksplaining why "journalists" are never allowed to question a Strong and Empowered Black Racist.

+ Update: CBS News scrapped plan to include Dr. Donald Grant in this morning's staff meeting about Dokoupil-Coates interview, and opted to hold multiple meetings with smaller groups (presumably to help prevent leaks).

Why small groups? Because the discussion in each group will be a little bit different so if something leaks, CBS "News" would know the 8-10 people it could have leaked from.

They're in full cover-up mode. Again.

Seems like old times.

I said this story would continue to make news. Now, I doubt it. There's only news if there is new information. CBS "News" is acting like a mafia crime family to enforce the code of omerta.
