60 MINUTES is a privately owned company headquartered in the US. Founded in 1968, it operates with approximately 70 employees. The company specializes in broadcast media production and distribution.
An ongoing shakeup at CBS News and its flagship program, 60 Minutes, centers on the concept of fairness, according to a June 16 report, referencing broadcast journalist David Brinkley's view on objectivity. This follows news on June 15 that a 60 Minutes producer quit amid the ongoing overhaul, with details of a memo sent to colleagues surfacing after various figures were fired. Earlier on June 14, veteran 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley was fired from his long-standing post. This decision came days after Pelley reportedly had a heated meeting with new series EP Nick Bilton and accused CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss of “murdering” the news magazine show. Previously on June 14, a source claimed CBS News attempted to rehire an ousted figure from 60 Minutes amidst the network's broader changes, which began since Bari Weiss became editor-in-chief. On June 13, a former 60 Minutes staffer criticized the changes as a "facelift with a f**king machete," highlighting the significant transformations the program has undergone since its 1968 inception.
