FCC Chairman Brendan Carr slammed veteran journalist Scott Pelley as “completely out of touch,” after Pelley claimed surprise at being fired from 60 Minutes — a move Carr said shows Pelley doesn’t understand how most jobs work. The fallout stems from Pelley’s public clashes with CBS News leadership, including calling new exec producer Nick Bilton “slender qualified” and accusing editor Bari Weiss of “murdering” the show. Pelley also pushed for Weiss’s removal, citing lack of TV experience and alleged political bias. CBS terminated Pelley over his “antipathy to the future of the show,” sparking debate about media trust and the disconnect between legacy journalists and modern workplace realities.
