How Will CBS/Paramount Deal with the Bari Weiss Disaster? [View all]

I can hardly wait to see. She has screwed up the job she was unqualified to hold. Badly. CBS is on a steep downhill roll.

How long will they pretend they're going to keep her in that position? When will we hear about her being replaced?

Bye, Bye Bari!
