Did you happen to see the caption that said CBS News 24/7? That story is on their streaming service. It was not part of their evening newscast. But the giraffe and the grizzly bear were considered to be newsworthy stories.
Who watches the evening news? To get viewers, they cover human interest stories. You said they didn’t cover the Bolton story and, instead of admitting that you were wrong, you double down and change the narrative. Kind of like how you approach the SBT when confronted with the evidence.
