What we have here is a top editor spiking a story not because of serious editorial concerns, but because:
1) she is insecure and needs to assert authority;
2) she wants to drive serious journalists out of CBS; and
3) she craves attention, which is her oxygen.

Bari Weiss, cont'd: "I held that story because it wasn't ready. The story presented very powerful testimony of abuse in CECOT, but that testimony has already been reported... The public knows that Venezuelans have been subjected to horrific treatment in this prison... we simply need to do more."

Bari Weiss is not and never has been a journalist. She is and always has been a propagandist.
Her being a lesbian is sometimes read as giving her a liberal valence, but she is and always has been illiberal.

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense
One explanation for Bari killing the story is that she did so as a public act of fealty to the administration. But another is that, as an inexperienced journalist, she doesn’t understand that a refusal to go on the record is a kind of comment in and of itself

he went from having never held any office at any level straight to the presidency. he’s never even run a very large company — all of the trump org scams have been tightly held with a pretty small number of actual employees, they’ve always farmed everything to contractors who they then ripped off
