The first thing you learn about Bari Weiss' new 60 Minutes golden child Nick Bilton is that the dude's a true weasel. [View all]
The new executive producer of the once-renowned CBS News show, Nick Bilton, terminated Pelley after he claimed Pelley refused to “find a path forward together” on Tuesday, according to a post from Puck News journalist Dylan Byers.
“Your antipathy to the future of the show has come through loud and clear,” the termination email said in part.
“I know how much Scott meant to many of you, and I don’t say this lightly. I made repeated attempts to have direct conversations with him over the weekend, and this afternoon I tried to find common ground. That was not the path Scott chose,” Bilton said in the message.
“What I regret most is that this situation interfered with the conversation I had hoped to have with you about Season 59 and the future of this show. I realize this is a great deal of change in a very short time, and I wouldn’t pretend otherwise,” he also said.
