Pelley Out After Staff Meeting Clash

Veteran 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley was fired after reportedly storming a staff meeting, calling new exec producer Nick Bilton “murdering the show” and questioning his qualifications. Bilton, a tech journalist without traditional broadcast experience, accused Pelley of hijacking the meeting with “remarkable incivility,” claiming Pelley showed no interest in the show’s future. The fallout adds fresh drama to an already turbulent era at CBS News, raising questions about the future of one of television’s most iconic programs.
