About this episode
On Thursday, CBS News announced three senior level women with “60 Minutes” were out of a job. First, the show’s executive producer, Tanya Simon, daughter of legendary reporter Bob Simon, was fired and replaced by a technology columnist who has never worked in broadcast news. Next, correspondents Sharon Alfonsi and our former ABC colleague and present day friend, Cecilia Vega were let go as well. Wait until you hear what Vega and Alfonsi had to say as they left the network, both women claiming censorship and political bias led to their departures.
