CBS News ratings must be declining substantially [View all]

I'm not sure who's going to watch. MAGA and republicans have fox and other nutso lying outlets. All others don't want to hear government propaganda. This means the audience for cbs news should disappear fast. the incompetent stooge weiss is driving it into the ground. i believe this is the ellison's sacrifice to trump to get their other business goals approved by the government.

Hopefully the remaining news outlets will appreciate and protect their increased viewership.
