Showing Original Post only (View all)WEISS is storming brains to copy The View called The Right View - isn't she for balance, not bias? [View all]
WEISS is not original, is following Chris LICHT's crash at CNN, is turning existing formats upside down.
And will probably (or hopefully) crash and burn. She's taken stabs at 60 Minutes and the evening news, but here she is in her
dungeon la-bore-atory, preparing to zap a copy of The View into - kidding you NOT - "The Right View"!
So DOKOUPIL's debut on the evening news was weepy and Sam SEDER went to town parodying it in the video below.

Anti-woke CBS boss developing right-leaning rival to 'The View'
.... Weiss, who has a reputation for being anti-woke, is reportedly developing a new daytime panel show not a reboot of The Talk thats quietly being billed as The Right View. ....
Its personal, an insider told Hollywood insider Rob Shuter, who writes on Substack.
Bari never forgot how The View passed on her in 2021 to fill the conservative co-host seat. Now shes in a position to create something smarter, sharper and more balanced. Its her vision of what daytime TV should be real debate without the screaming.
Weiss guest-hosted episodes of The View in 2020 and 2021 but didnt test well with audiences, according to Variety, which reported the audience didnt understand her centrist-right contrarian politics.
She also had low scores with focus groups. ....

A private plane and Bari pitches including jet-skiing with DJ Khaled: Inside Weiss chaotic CBS Evening News Reboot
EXCLUSIVE: The new CBS News editor-in-chief has chartered a private plane for the team, made last-minute logistical changes and fired off Bari Pitches. Weiss is once again accused of creating behind-the-scenes turmoil with her decision-making ahead of CBS Evening News latest reboot
EXCLUSIVE: The new CBS News editor-in-chief has chartered a private plane for the team, made last-minute logistical changes and fired off Bari Pitches. Weiss is once again accused of creating behind-the-scenes turmoil with her decision-making ahead of CBS Evening News latest reboot
.... According to three sources with knowledge of the matter, Weiss is planning on chartering a private plane to fly the team to each location for the Live From America tour this month, taking Dokoupil and CBS Evening News executive producer Kim Harvey on the flights. ....
And if her security detail is such a huge concern, why is she going? She could watch from the control room or on an actual TV like everyone else, the source added. Instead CBS News has to foot the bill for her five security guards, private jet, and more guards with heavy weapons. Does she not understand how much journalism could be made with the money were instead spending on perks for her?
As Weiss has continued to propose last-minute changes to the logistics for the Live From America tour for the show, which has included her own pitches and demands for location changes, staffers on the show have grown increasingly concerned that the relaunch will be a car crash. The plummeting morale on the show, according to sources, has landed at the feet of Harvey.
She is a yes person that is not just drinking the Bari Kool-Aid, but like injecting it in her veins, because that's how she survives, one network insider noted. ....
