60 Minutes Reairs Controversial Deportation Segment Amid CBS Leadership Dispute

60 Minutes aired Sharyn Alfonsi’s segment on deportations to El Salvador that had been pulled last December after Bari Weiss objected, a decision Alfonsi says was politically driven; the broadcast includes White House and DHS statements not in the original edit, while officials reportedly declined on-camera interviews. CBS says the piece was always going to air, and the controversy highlights tensions between CBS leadership and the Trump administration, with added context like the Maduro raid and prior online leakage of the original version.
