Trump Bashes CBS News’ Norah O’Donnell As Rumors Swirl Of Possible Return As Anchor: ‘I don’t believe it’​

President Trump bashed CBS News’ former “Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell after The Post reported that the longtime correspondent is rumored to return to an anchor spot at the network.

Last week, Paramount Skydance announced its $150 million acquisition of buzzy, contrarian news site The Free Press – and its controversial decision to elevate its pro-Israel, anti-woke founder Bari Weiss to the top role as editor in chief of CBS News.

Under her lead, O’Donnell – who stepped down as host of “CBS Evening News” earlier this year – has resurfaced as a contender to land an anchor seat, The Post exclusively reported last week.

“So who’s going to be the head anchor at CBS?” Trump asked reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday.

“Not Norah O’Donnell. I don’t believe it. I don’t believe it,” he jabbed.

Does it really matter who the newsreader is? I kind of thought they were all interchangeable. Plug and play.

NBC News To Cut 150 Jobs — 7% of workforce — as staffers ‘dreading what’s to come’ at 30 Rock​

NBC News is preparing for its largest round of layoffs in years, with about 150 employees expected to lose their jobs this week as the network adjusts to life without its cable siblings MSNBC and CNBC, according to a report.

The job cuts, expected to begin Wednesday and continue through Thursday, will hit roughly 7% of the 2,000-person news division, Status reported.

Staffers at NBC News headquarters are “dreading what’s to come,” a 30 Rock insider told Status.

The looming layoffs come as parent company Comcast prepares to spin off MSNBC, CNBC, USA Network and several other cable and digital properties into a new publicly traded company called Versant by the end of the year.

Netflix Is Considering Buying Warner Bros. In Power Merger That Could Spell The End For CNN​

Netflix has expressed interest in purchasing Warner Bros. as the company fields offers from multiple media giants.

The parent company of CNN, HBO and Discovery announced plans earlier this year to split into two businesses: One focused on network television, and another that emphasized streaming and studios.

Ted Sarandos, co-chief executive of Netflix, said the studio's library of films and TV shows and production lots are attractive acquisitions for the streaming service.

According to Bloomberg, a split could untether suffering networks like CNN from the company's up and coming streaming and production services.

Over the past year, CNN – the company's only news network – has seen a decline in ratings.

CNN reportedly received 42 percent less viewers in the third quarter of 2025 than in the third quarter of 2024, according to Ad Week.

In January, CNN laid off 6 percent of its work force and new digital strategies, which Warner Bros. invested $70 million into.

The news network also announced plans for a streaming service, despite shutting down CNN+ just a month after it launched in 2022.



Regardless of network changes, Netflix reportedly lacks interest in CNN which could leave the network floundering.

Soros Fund Looking to Invest in Widely-Ridiculed Left-Wing Propaganda Outlet “MeidasTouch”

Silverloch is more than a media company. It is a movement. Built on truth, conviction, and a commitment to shaping cultur...

silverloch.com

"MeidasTouch is a prolific spreader of misinformation on social media. To give just a few examples:

• In numerous videos from 2021 and 2022 they pushed the claim that Trump ordered the National Guard to stand down on January 6 - when in fact he authorized 10,000 troops days earlier.
• In March 2022 they made a video go viral of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appearing to refuse to applaud Ukraine's Vladimir Zelensky. The clip was deceptively edited - MTG did in fact applaud Zelensky before, during, and after the ovation.
• In the summer of 2022 they claimed that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis banned books on the holocaust. They were not banned - the law in question restricts classroom instruction on sexual orientation/gender identity in K–3, not history. The claim was based on a single isolated removal of the book “Maus” in one county from a curriculum (which was reversed).
• In September 2023, they claimed that Trump had suggested feeding migrant children to alligators in a Truth Social post. The Truth Social post in question doesn’t even mention children.
• In December 2023 they ran a headline claiming that Donald Trump confessed “We’ve been waging an all out war on American democracy.” From the context, Trump clearly meant to say that the left was doing this and misspoke - it was not an admission.
• In September 2024, they claimed that Trump said he would be a “dictator on day one” citing a heavily edited video. Trump said, in a clearly tongue-in-cheek comment, that he’d be a dictator on day one to close the border and drill for oil, but “after that, I’m not a dictator.” The ending was cut from the video.

The quality of the lies is so poor and embarrassing to other left-wing propagandists that even left-leaning outlets like CNN and Snopes routinely correct them."

Reads like a re-cap of LG threads.
