Is CBS News Actively Covering Up for Senile Biden?

CBS seizes confidential files of fired reporter pursuing Hunter Biden laptop story in ‘unprecedented’ move

The acclaimed CBS reporter who was investigating the Hunter Biden laptop scandal before she was fired last week had her personal files seized by the network in an “unprecedented” move, sources told The Post on Thursday.

Catherine Herridge — who is the middle of a First Amendment case being closely watched by journalists nationwide — was among 20 CBS News staffers let go as part of a larger purge of hundreds of employees at parent company Paramount Global.

Her firing had stunned co-workers, but the network’s decision to hold on to her personal materials, along with her work laptop where she may have other confidential info, has left many staffers shaken, according to insiders.

“It’s so extraordinary,” a source familiar with the situation told The Post, noting that the files — which are presumptively now the property of CBS News — most likely contain confidential material from Herridge’s stints at both Fox and CBS.

The source said the network boxed up all her personal belongings except for Herridge’s notes and files and informed her that it would decide what — if anything — would be returned to her.

Herridge had encountered roadblocks from higher-ups over her Hunter Biden coverage and had also clashed with CBS News President Ingrid-Ciprian Matthews, a sharp-elbowed executive who was investigated — and cleared — in 2021 over favoritism and discriminatory hiring and management practices, as The Post previously reported.

She’s one of only a handful of reporters left who’s more than a bleating propagandist. Hopefully she picks up her work somewhere else.

She predicted a black swan event in 2024. She knows things. It’s coming. Buckle up.

Yeah - she was the only real journalist at CBS where everyone else on air is a far left DNC hack

"The timing of Herridge’s termination immediately raised suspicions in Washington. She was pursuing stories that were unwelcomed by the Biden White House..."

At least they didn’t kill her, yet.

... This Administration got her forced out at CBS.
She was investigating and commenting on Huter Biden and the
FARA charges awaiting him.

Funny how the popular FBI/DOJ whistleblower bloke - who has
given them GREAT information in the past - is somehow NOW
"lying" when it comes Biden money $$$ and the same claims
Catherine was making.

She is one of the reporters I actually respect, always fair and honest.

I believe she donated one of her kidneys to her child.

A good person.

Fox canned her too. I think she’s got some receipts on what’s going to happen. They silenced her. Will she back off now? Who knows.

Because CBS streamlined and then kept materials they owned they are covering up for Biden? What reporters aren't writing about Biden. Holy conspiracy theory batman.

... NO - they Don't... They are NOT CBS's materials.
They are Catherine's.

(And I'm glad that Winn posts here and gives his OPINION)

Did you not read the story in the OP?

The source said the network boxed up all her personal belongings except for Herridge’s notes and files and informed her that it would decide what — if anything — would be returned to her.

then there is this

Turley said CBS’ “heavy-handed approach” to the files” is “dead wrong” and that it had “sent a chilling signal in the ranks” of the network.

SAG-AFTRA, the union which represents CBS staffers, condemned the network for seizing Herridge’s notes and research from her office.

“This action is deeply concerning concerning to the union because it sets a dangerous precedent for all media professionals and threatens the very foundation of the First Amendment,” the union said in a statement to The Post.

It stated work laptop. Nuff said there. How could a coffee mug or back massager prove a cover up? Or a desk plant? This story has so many holes in it. The Post and story are FILLED with scripted sensationalistic phrases and assumptions.
