Sharyn Alfonsi, a correspondent for “60 Minutes,” confronted CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss during a meeting over the delayed airing of her report on El Salvador’s CECOT prison, accusing Weiss of political interference. Despite tensions, Weiss approved the segment with minor changes, which aired recently. Alfonsi reportedly clashed with deputy editor Adam Rubenstein, dismissing his feedback and expressing frustration over the editorial process. Alfonsi has faced controversy before, notably for a segment involving Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and COVID vaccine distribution.
