Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss wanted 60 Minutes to say Renee Good was ‘driving toward officer’

Anchor who was fired accuses CBS chief of interfering with report because it echoed what Trump said of the shooting

Fired CBS 60 Minutes anchor Scott Pelley has accused editorial management at his old network of interfering with a broadcast segment looking at an immigration officer’s killing of Minneapolis protester Renee Good in January.

The veteran broadcaster, who was recently dismissed from the show, said CBS News’s editor-in-chief Bari Weiss had sent an email to his supervisor requesting changes be made soon before the airing of the segment in question.
