CBS’ “60 Minutes” aired its delayed segment on migrants deported to El Salvador’s CECOT prison, featuring interviews with Venezuelan men and newly included statements from the Trump administration. The segment was initially pulled by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss for needing more reporting, a decision she defended as prioritizing quality journalism. The updated piece included additional context from White House officials, addressing criticism about the original omission. Weiss emphasized the importance of thorough reporting for “60 Minutes,” aiming to provide viewers with comprehensive coverage.
