Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:
News Team, Thank you for the notes and texts. I apologize for not reaching out earlier. I learned on Saturday that Bari Weiss spiked our story, INSIDE CECOT, which was supposed to air tonight. We (Ori and I) asked for a call to discuss her decision. She did not afford us that courtesy/opportunity. Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one. We requested responses to questions and/or interviews with DHS, the White House, and the State Department. Government silence is a statement, not a VETO. Their refusal to be interviewed is a tactical maneuver designed to kill the story. If the administration's refusal to participate becomes a valid reason to spike a story, we have effectively handed them a "kill switch" for any reporting they find inconvenient. If the standard for airing a story becomes "the government must agree to be interviewed," then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state. These men risked their lives to speak with us. We have a moral and professional obligation to the sources who entrusted us with their stories. Abandoning them now is a betrayal of the most basic tenet of journalism: giving voice to the voiceless. CBS spiked the Jeffrey Wigand interview due to legal concerns, nearly destroying the credibility of this broadcast. It took years to recover from that "low point." By pulling this story to shield an administration, we are repeating that history, but for political optics rather than legal ones. We have been promoting this story on social media for days. Our viewers are expecting it. When it fails to air without a credible explanation, the public will correctly identify this as corporate censorship. We are trading 50 years of "Gold Standard" reputation for a single week of political quiet. I care too much about this broadcast to watch it be dismantled without a fight. Sharyn

Reminder on this day of Advent:

If your Christianity isn't oriented around bringing down the powerful, liberating the oppressed, feeding the poor, and sending the rich away empty, the Theotokos says you are doing it wrong.

I mean, we don't know if Karoline Leavitt still has that groomer today now that the photos are published. Well, what can I say? That's the makeup that she puts on, those are the injections she gave herself. If they show up in a photo, what do you want me to say? I don't know if it says something about the world we live in, the age of Photoshop, the age of AI filters on your Instagram, but the fact that the internet is freaking out because they're seeing real photos and not retouched ones says something to me. Were there moments that you missed? Anything that happened that's on the cutting room floor? I don't think there's anything I missed that I wish I'd gotten. I'll give you a little anecdote: Stephen Miller was perhaps the most concerned about the portrait session. He asked me, "Should I smile or not smile?" and I said, "How would you want to be portrayed?" We agreed that we would do a bit of both. And then when we were finished, he comes up to me to shake my hand and say goodbye. And he says to me, "You know, you have a lot of power in the discretion you use to be kind to people." And I looked at him and I said, "You know, you do, too."

You don't know this, but December 6 is National Miners Day. It was established in 2009 to acknowledge the Monongah mining disaster, the worst single loss-of-life event in a coal mine in American history. On December 6, 1907, at least 362 WVa coal miners were killed in a catastrophic explosion. My father's father died in a mine explosion in the 1930s. My mother's father was dying of black lung when his tiny U.S. Steel-owned house burned down with him in it. By that time, my parents' siblings and their families had scattered to California, Colorado, New York, and D.C. to find employment other than mining. My father (pictured here in U.S. Steel Gary #9 mine, 1958) also had black lung, but thanks to improved mine safety and ventilation laws, not a fatal case. A hundred years ago, Matewan sheriff Sid Hatfield, who had shown allegiance to the unionized miners of southwestern WVa rather than the coal companies, was gunned down alongside a friend as their wives watched in horror. This happened in my home county on the McDowell County courthouse steps in Welch, WVa. Those murders catalyzed a movement, the largest labor uprising in history. The history of violence against miners and their families, combined with low wages, dangerous jobs, and what amounted to indentured servitude with a lifetime of debt, were all contributors to the Blair Mountain uprising. The Battle of Blair Mountain saw 10,000 WVa coal miners march in protest of perilous work conditions, squalid housing, low wages, and many other grievances. Local and federal law enforcement brutally shut down the burgeoning movement. Miners striking for greater union recognition clashed with armed Baldwin-Felts agents, hired mercenaries employed by coal companies to put down unionizing efforts. They drove families from their homes at gunpoint, drove an armored train through a tent colony of the evicted miners and sprayed their tents with machine gun fire, and burned women and children alive in a mining camp cellar.

Tomorrow is National Miners Day, which probably isn’t a big deal in your family, but it is in mine and I’m working tomorrow so we’re doing this tonight

The Labor Department barely acknowledges WHY December 6 is set aside, so I’m going to turn the mic over to my mom for a minute

So...

I pledged to report an Epstein episode if we can hit 40,000 YouTube views on one of my favorite PTFO episodes ever — which is about competitive bird-watching — by this Tuesday (Dec. 2).

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.
