1. Does anyone watch the CBS Evening News? Until Katy Tur broke the news I'd never heard of the guy.

Weiss loved that.

I expect nothing but unvarnished pro-Israeli propaganda from him and CBS News in general. When they aren’t sanewashing MAGA, anyway.

But recent news accounts says Katy is fighting with him because he doesn't go after Trump goons hard enough. The hatred of Katy Tur here is groundless.
