Reporter Who Dared to Ask Woke Prophet Ta-Nehisi Coates Offers "Regrets" For Committing Unauthorized Journalism at "Teary" Racial Bullying Struggle Session

This is fine. CBS "News" has laid down the law that no woke Marxist of a brown skin tone can ever, ever be challenged on his racism and antisemitism.

As John Nolte pointed out: There are zero "reporters" speaking up for this actual reporter. Jan Crawford did, but that was in an internal CBS staff conference, meant to be private.

Jake Tapper, brave defender of Democrats and "reporters" (but I repeat myself)?

Absolutely silent.

"CBS Mornings" co-host Tony Dokoupil told staffers during an emotional meeting that he "regretted" putting them in a difficult position amid the brewing scandal at the network over his grilling of an anti-Israel author, The Post has learned.

The embattled anchor spoke at Tuesday's staff-only meeting -- which was not attended by co-hosts Gayle King and Nate Burleson -- a day after being reprimanded by CBS brass for his fiery sit-down with Ta-Nehsi Coates, a source with knowledge said.

"Tony said he regretted putting his colleagues in that position especially the ones overseas and in danger," the insider told The Post.

Are you shitting me? That's the pretext for this racial struggle session? That he was putting fake reporters in danger in Gaza by doing real reporting in America?

This is the cover story.

Wow, this is corrupt. They literally do nothing but lie.

"There were tears. [People were] very upset," the source continued, adding that staffers are "divided" on the Israel-Palestinian conflict and were "troubled" by how Dokoupil challenged Coates last week.

So that's the real story -- the wokies were upset that any of their hard left pro-terrorist dogma was challenged.

So what's this bullshit about "putting reporters overseas in danger"?

And if reporters really are in danger because a reporter in America asks a question about Hamas's terrorism -- doesn't that mean that Coates' claim that Hamas are the good guys is a lie?

Dokoupil, however, didn't back down from his incisive questioning of Coates about his new book during the 11:30 a.m. meeting, which was led by "CBS Mornings" executive producer Shawna Thomas, sources said.

A second source said that some black staffers who attended the meeting were critical that Burleson and King have remained tight-lipped about the matter.

...

Dokoupil did not return requests for comment.

CBS News declined to comment.

In the days leading up to Tuesday's meeting, the source said that "CBS Mornings" staffers complained to network top brass about the journalist's treatment of Coates, who was promoting his latest book, "The Message."

The book condemns what he called Israeli "apartheid" in its administration of the territories captured in the Six-Day War of 1967.

Dokoupil, a convert to Judaism whose ex-wife lives in Israel along with their two children, took issue with Coates, saying that the book "would not be out of place in the backpack of an extremist" due to its characterization of Israel.

So, that's something that can put people's lives in danger -- a racially incendiary tract calling Jews filthy oppressors and calling for their overthrow.

But that danger is a good danger.

The possibility that a Gaza stringer might somehow be put in danger by questioning of this tract? Oh, that is an intolerable peril that we cannot abide.

During a staff meeting Monday -- on the one-year anniversary of the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack that killed 1,400 in Israel -- CBS News boss Wendy McMahon and president of content development, Adrienne Roark called out Dokoupil for bringing his "bias" to the interview, adding that it did not live up to the network's editorial standards, according to reports from Puck News and Bari Weiss' Free Press.

Isn't it sweet that CBS "News" finally admits that some reporters have "bias" and unfairly grill interview subjects they disagree with politically?

But that never happens with strident leftwingers like Norah O'Donnell and Margaret Brennan, of course. They're not biased when they break the rules of the debate to pester JD Vance with fake "fact" checks.

No, reporters only show bias when they grill a Woke Black Prophet of Hate.

Very relatedly: Trump demands that the propaganda organization CBS "News" release the full, unedited interview with Kamala Harris, and not just the clips they've edited and polished to give Kamala the Hero Edit.

[W]hen the full interview aired Monday night, the Trump campaign noted that much of Harris's incoherence had been conveniently edited out. Leavitt's statement was scathing, accusing CBS of protecting Harris by removing embarrassing moments:

"On Sunday, 60 Minutes teased Kamala's highly-anticipated sit-down interview with one of her worst word salads to date, which received significant criticism on social media. During the full interview on Monday evening, the word salad was deceptively edited to lessen Kamala's idiotic response. Why did 60 Minutes choose not to air Kamala's full word salad, and what else did they choose not to air? The American people deserve the full, unedited transcript from Kamala's sit-down interview. We call upon 60 Minutes and CBS to release it. What do they, and Kamala, have to hide?"

What reason can CBS "News" have to not freely offer this? This is the first interview she's given where she was asked questions alone. It's critical information about the election that voters need and do not have.

To withhold the interview is, yes, election interference.
