60 Minutes is reportedly set to air the controversial Bari Weiss–pulled segment about Venezuelan migrants sent to El Salvador’s CECOT prison, four weeks after its original Dec. 21 air date. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi blasted the delay as a political move, and although a Trump administration interview reportedly did not materialize, the piece will still air Sunday night. It faces stiff competition from a Bears–Rams NFL playoff game, a slot that historically draws massive audiences, which could dampen ratings despite online interest from the segment’s prior circulation.
