CBS reporter Scott McFarland just jumped ship to Midas Touch, a outfit that started as an anti-Trump political action committee back in 20. 20. Now he's anchoring there, saying they share the same North Star. Conservatives are fired up, calling this the latest proof that Big Now World News has a baked-in liberal slant. He's ain't the first time a mainstream journalist ditched a corporate gig for open partisan work. Take Terry Moran, who logged nearly 28 years at ABC News before getting canned over social media blasts at Trump and his team. He fired up a sub-stack, ripping legacy media for caving to exec fears and going full throttle on Trump critiques. Folks are reacting strong, with many on the right pointing to this pattern as why trust an old school outlets is tanking. Katie Kirk, ex-today in CBS Eaming News anchor, said she feels liberated ditching both sides

1:00coverage for her true liberal take. Don Lemon, after 17 years at CNN, launched his own YouTube channel, doubling down on anti-Trump Rants without the network leash.
