Remember ex-CBS head Les Moonves’s comment about his wall-to-wall Trump campaign coverage maybe being not so good for America, but good for CBS?
Moonves should have been forced to resign for that crack and that belief espoused, long before he was canned for sexual harassment.
Now, CBS continues to give Trump a megaphone, staging before the Super Bowl “a typically gibberish-filled interview during which Trump was essentially allowed to roam free and go largely unchallenged.”
Eric Boehlert continues at Daily Kos: “That’s the dance that now takes place. Trump provides access, news outlets know not to ask too many tough questions—and in return, the media companies profit.”
