| CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss decided to shelve a planned “60 Minutes” story titled “Inside CECOT,” creating an uproar inside CBS, but the report has reached a worldwide audience anyway.
| | One investor takes issue with Broadway’s financial woes |
| [[https://trips62.cc/ трипскан]] | | James L. Walker Jr. invested $50,000 in the recent revival of “Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club” on Broadway. The star-studded performance closed early in what producers called a financial loss after being open for about 14 months and 592 regular performances. |
| On Monday, some Canadian viewers noticed that the pre-planned “60 Minutes” episode was published on a streaming platform owned by Global TV, the network that has the rights to “60 Minutes” in Canada.

| The preplanned episode led with correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi’s story — the one that Weiss stopped from airing in the US because she said it was “not ready.”

| [[https://trips62.cc/ трипскан сайт]] | | In August, the Atlanta-based investor filed a lawsuit against the show’s producers, alleging breach of contract and what the suit calls a “deliberate scheme” to strip him and other investors of their money. |
| Several Canadian viewers shared clips and summaries of the story on social media, and within hours, the videos went viral on platforms like Reddit and Bluesky.

| | “Obviously, we want our money back, but yes, a major consideration is how do we change the overall infrastructure?” Walker questioned. |
|

|
| “Watch fast,” one of the Canadian viewers wrote on Bluesky, predicting that CBS would try to have the videos taken offline.
| | ATG Entertainment, the defendant in the lawsuit, would not comment on active litigation but has denied any wrongdoing and filed a motion this month to dismiss the suit. |
