Gosh, how much further right could CBS possibly get? It already has on board hard-core conservatives including Margaret Brennan, John Dickerson, and Norah O'Donnell. Oh, wait. On CNN This Morning, lefty media analyst Sara Fischer, reporting on David Ellison of Paramount having named Bari Weiss editor-in-chief of CBS News, said: "David Ellison either has a personal or political interest to sort of bring CBS News further to the right." Fischer claimed that the $150 million Paramount paid for Weiss' Free Press was "insane," based on its price-to-earnings ratio. Host Audie Fischer highlighted anonymous CBS staffers describing the mood at the network as "utterly depressing." One of them said: "A throwing up emoji is not enough of a reflection of the feelings in here."
