It's somehow only been three months since Trump-supporting billionaire David Ellison named the reactionary centrist Bari Weiss as editor in chief of CBS News, and she is making quick work of destroying the network's credibility. Most people have heard about Weiss's last-minute intervention to hold a 60 Minutes segment that interviewed people whom the Trump administration deported to a prison in El Salvador known as CECOT without so much as a court hearing.
In case it hasn't been obvious enough, The Morning Show makes clear in "The Revolution Will Be Televised" that the dynamic shared between the series and its audience is very much the audience going "this show is insane, what could be more batshit than this?" and The Morning Show going "hold my beer." And then it does something like have the Iranian government go after Alex Levy with deepfakes.
