Connie Chung Shreds 'Greedy' CBS Owners In Wicked Takedown: It's Crashing 'Into Crumbles'
HuffPost
The veteran news anchor said CBS is now a "whole different organization" compared to her time at the network.
Former “CBS Evening News” anchor Connie Chung has taken on the “greedy owners” of her old network amid its rightward shift in recent months.
Chung — on Thursday’s episode of “Pablo Torre Finds Out” — described CBS as a “whole different organization” from the time she worked there before calling out Shari Redstone, who sold her majority stake in parent company Paramount Global to David Ellison’s Skydance Media in a $8.4 billion deal over the summer.
“Their greed has caused the venerable CBS to actually disassemble, to crash into crumbles,” said Chung, the second woman ever to anchor a major U.S. nightly news program.
She proceeded to chuckle before name-dropping Bari Weiss, the conservative journalist who recently became CBS News’ new editor-in-chief.
“I don’t know what to call Bari Weiss, I just don’t know,” she said.
