Nolte: CBS News Ratings Sink Under Chief Bari Weiss

Listen to Article

CBS News is imploding under the weight of its own woke experiments, with the Evening News shattering records for the lowest ratings this century and CBS Mornings hitting its all-time nadir. Bari Weiss, the outlet’s newish editorial chief and a self-proclaimed heterodox voice, was brought in to salvage the sinking ship after years of liberal bias alienated even their dwindling audience. But instead of a ratings rebound, we’re witnessing a viewer exodus that rivals the Hindenburg—proving once again that injecting more establishment-approved diversity into newsrooms doesn’t fix the rot; it accelerates it.

What’s fascinating here is the timing and subtext for the 2A community. CBS has long been a frontline warrior in the gun-grabbers’ media brigade, pumping out hit pieces on AR-15s, assault weapons, and law-abiding carriers while ignoring the real drivers of urban violence like soft-on-crime DAs and fatherless homes. Weiss’s tenure hasn’t dialed back that agenda; if anything, it’s amplified the sanctimonious tone under a veneer of balance. As viewers flee to outlets like Newsmax or even Fox that occasionally defend Second Amendment rights without apology, this ratings freefall signals a market correction. Legacy media’s monopoly on narrative is crumbling—people are voting with their remotes, starving the anti-2A echo chamber of oxygen.

The implications? A starving CBS means less cash for their relentless advocacy against our rights, from pushing red-flag laws to demonizing the NRA. It’s a win for gun owners tuning out the propaganda, forcing networks to either pivot toward sanity or fade into irrelevance. If Weiss can’t turn this around, expect more poaching of independent voices who ultimately toe the line, but the real story is the audience revolt: America’s fed up with being lectured, and the Second Amendment stays safer when the lecturers go broke. Keep the boycotts coming, patriots—this is how we win the information war.
