Her contribution to the media and opinion landscape has been nothing but malignant. She's a scourge against anyone who puts human rights before the project of a greater Israel and has the scalps on the wall to prove it. She wants to remake CBS News as something as far away from the network Don Hewitt served as possible, something very much like Fox News except more frivolous, more disdainful toward minorities, women and non-cisgendered. She is also extremely smug, ill-informed and hard to take in large doses (judging from her appearances on Real Talk with Bill Maher, who seems to worship her).

My hope is she washes out fast, but with the oligarch Larry Ellison in charge of CBS and all of Paramount now, we can probably expect many resignations and early retirements by principled journalists. I hate to think about it, but Scott Simon is probably not long for his job.
