Scott Pelley called out CBS News owner David Ellison following his termination at "60 Minutes," suggesting the Paramount Skydance CEO was "casting aside" the news program to curry favor with Donald Trump.
Steve Kroft, who worked at "60 Minutes" for 30 seasons, believes the president "finally got his wish" amid a growing list of staff departures.
Longtime correspondent Scott Pelley was fired from the gold-standard program on Tuesday, in the latest sign of chaos at the iconic show.
