“60 Minutes” host Lesley Stahl spoke with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) — the interview aired during Sunday’s broadcast – and liberals immediately attacked both Stahl and CBS.
“Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, nicknamed MTG, isn’t afraid to share her opinions, no matter how intense and in-your-face they are. She sits down with Lesley Stahl this Sunday on 60 Minutes,” the show’s preview tweet read.
Liberals quickly criticized Stahl for interviewing Taylor Greene and CBS for daring to allow such an interview to air.
“Some of the most important decisions you make as an editor are about who and what NOT to cover,” Laura Helmuth said.
“Wasteful of our time journalism malpractice. This should have been an April Fool but sadly is not. Serious treatment of this individual by @60Minutes is not providing informative, insightful news or analysis but rather a platform for hate to build on,” Bruce Bourgoine complained.
