CBS News CEO Wendy McMahon quits amid possible settlement of Trump lawsuit

McMahon, who has led both the network news division and news for the CBS-owned stations, said in an email to staff that "it's become clear that the company and I do not agree on the path forward. It's time to move on and for this organization to move forward with new leadership."

McMahon has made clear she opposes settling with Trump — just like 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens, who quit last month.

Yep, it's looking like a full surrender over at CBS rather than lose their broadcast license.  They're not alone, as NBC is planning to divest themselves of the left-leaning MSNBC cable channel (soon to be unrelated to both M$ and NBC).  PBS has lost most if not all federal funding.  But on the other end of media, the cable companies, it's going better for them: FCC Chair Brendan Carr is letting ISPs merge—as long as they end their DEI programs
