CBS News editor in chief Bari Weiss decided to shelve a planned “60 Minutes” story titled “Inside CECOT,” creating an uproar inside CBS, but the report has reached a worldwide audience anyway.
A '60 Minutes' segment featuring interviews with deported Venezuelans has appeared online despite being pulled by executives.
CECOT houses hundreds of Venezuelan people deported from the United States without trial. In the 60 Minutes episode, correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi said the reporting team spoke with some of the men who endured one of El Salvador's harshest prisons.
The correspondent behind the story says it was postponed for political reasons, while network says it needs more work.
