“Shut up Gail King”

Elizabeth A.
3/15/24

Gail King should shut her mouth. She is annoying and I feel others on the news have to stand her aggressive ugly mouth. Shut up Gail. U are shaking your foot to a Dr. explaining colonoscopy. Stop with the people of color comments, Black people and learn when u have a professional to give important information to all. Why does she point out that he is shaking his foot. U are a foolish woman that makes all of your co hosts uncomfortable. U are not an expert on anything but yourself and should shut your mouth Gail. Learn and listen.,stop interrupting and talking smack. U are not as great as u seem to believe...we don't care about your constant opinions on everything Gail. Shut up. U r not Oprah Gail u fool. Shaking your butt and telling us your favorite color. Nobody cares Gail. Who cares when u interview and keep giving your opinions. Shut up Gail!🤑

“CBS News is a joke”

Dan F.
10/11/24

I will never watch another minute of any CBS programming after recent CBS News/60 Minutes broadcast. The DEI/Woke attitude and skewing of the news is an absolute travesty. This organization used to be a stalwart for truth. Not anymore. This organization obviously doesn't need the American public. Goodbye.

Gayle's interview with Andrea Bocelli this morning was amateurish as well as all of her interviews. It's beyond my understanding as to why she is even on the morning show. She has an over rated view of herself. Even when most people that are speaking from their homes, they do not feel the need to show every corner of their apartment. You can tell a lot about a person when they are boastful. Please fire her! Anthony and Tony are the reason we watch the show.

Use to watch CBS news faithfully! Can't stand the way they are treating the President
Donald Trump compared to Joe Biden. What ever happened to neutral reporting?
It was so sad to see how Gayle King was just giddy over the supposedly win of Joe Biden.
You are censoring what the American people deserve to hear from all parties involved.
Moving on to news reported from outside the USA! At least they report real facts on all news!

I have to pick out the truth and separate it from the opinions of the anchors. It's sad but you have this problem with just about every news company. Why do they get paid when they can't even report just facts? Still alot more credible than other news channels. Just with they had somewhere I could email to help them with my ideas so they don't look like idiots.

I hope you (CBS news), hears the screams and cries of those innocent children in uvalde for the rest of your lives. Those police involved should resign immediately and face harsh criminal prosecution. Despicable cowards hid in a closet or waited outside as children were slaughtered only feet away. CBS again has chosen to cover for these cowards by biased reporting and pandering to the far left. You have to live with this unspeakable crime and I hope it haunts you all for the rest of your lives. Maybe if it was one of CBS'S children you would react like a human being.

There is never an occasion for an impartial report where it is not seized and twisted to your corporate opinions. I am able to listen and ignore your views and separate the facts but at a cost to both of us. Nora O'Donnell is so blatant it doesn't seem it would be in your best interest to have her as Anchor. I am tired of Fox too. Why can't you get smart and serve we Moderates?

Tony is just so aggressive and impolite with those he interviews. He acts like he knows better... like today he said "like some magic" to the head of CVC. And hi toothless grin. I have seen him smile but only on accident. Hi voice is very irritable
He really ruins the show. He needs more practice at a different level..

I always watched nothing but CBS. Then yesterday a new segment bring your own news, I thought what. I always watched for the goid news, it's only about ratings now. And Gayle puts her two cents comments in way too much. They did a dirty deed getting rid of Nora, and John. I'm sick of them screwing up a good program just for ratings. I'm switching news programs.

Tony I thought was a good addition but after trying to talk at the same time a guest is talking Is rude! Seems like Trumps lawyer was not the one to answer the questions you were asking. Don't be so biased. How I miss Walter Cronkite and other newsmen who reported the news and kept their opinions to themselves!

The new format is terrible. They stole the sun burst and horns from Jane Pawleys show. They can't be original. Gayle always has an opinion on race issues and as usual she is wrong. Can we get back to news reporting on events that truly are important to all of us and not just to Gayle King!
Finale thought.
You can put lipstick on a monkey and it is still a monkey. All the remodeling on the show and still got the same old personal options. I'm done with CBS.

Just watched your CBS evening news 9/4/20. We've been concerned about the loss of journalistic ethics in your obvious slanting of the news to support your narrative, but you have sank to a new low when you dishonored the fallen military and traumatized their families with the false reporting of the Atlantic article. John Bolton came out and publicly denied Trump ever said such a sickening thing about our fallen military long before your evening news aired. It was expected you would still push that false story, but to not mention Bolton's denial indicates you have lost all honor. You have become the National Enquirer of national news. To call you yellow journalism would be a compliment. It is frightening that there is no longer any trust in our public news stations - it's is like living in Russia or China. You've lost all public trust. We will no longer watch your station or patronize your advertisers.

This country is the top helping country in the world why else are people wanting to enter it? Also we are one, not many pull our heads out! Everyone wants a hand out that comes here... we need to get the people that are already here working and if we could use extra help on things like war jump in the front line and fight for this great life we live like our fathers and grandfathers did! We are loosing our roots and going forward bling piss on the baby boomers controlling the chaos we now live in thanks!

I watched Gayle King and Oprah the other morning as they discussed "Caste" - the next book in Oprah's book club. At the end, Oprah seemed quite interested in sending books to two of the anchors but I'm wondering if Jeff Glor ever received her book? CBS News is becoming very hard to watch... they don't just report the news - they give their opinion which most people don't want to hear. We can get opinions from people around us all day... just present the news without being so negative. This is no different than all the people they discuss doing things "they" don't like! Just present the news!

I watched the CBS news this morning and will never ever watch it again. Gale King constantly has to pull the race card and negatively inserts her opinion which only perpetuate the divide. Report the news I don't care what you think. She was reporting on the Dautne Wright story which was an extremely horrible but she had to insert her words into the broadcast and never reported that he had 2 outstanding warrants. Tell the whole story. Shame on you and
Good bye CBS

When you use the same video multiple times over and over your viewers wonder if there is nothing NEW for you to present. Is the pandemic really bad or just a scam. No wonder people don't obey restrictions. You are part of that problem. Get new videos or admit there is no NEWS.

Why does your headline about Facebook only call attention to white supremicists groups... certainly there are black groups and others groups that exist as well. As Gail said... no better time than now to start doing something about it... how about you start by calling out all hate groups and not slant the headlines.

I use to wake up and be interested in watching the morning news on CBS, loved loved loved the cast. It was the first thing I did when I opened my eyes. Since the cast changed, I've tuned it maybe 25% of the time and every single time I end up turning it off before the show ends... very disappointed. The new cast is terrible, unnatural and misinformed. I wake up watching a different morning news now until they change the cast.

I have been watching the show for an extended period and have noticed that there is a lack of diversity when it comes to invited guests. Surely Battiste is the token Black as well as band members. Rarely do viewers see a lineup of positive Black role models. We can and should do better?

I'd rate it zero if I could. Sim port jammed or damaged so sim card insertion a nightmare - swallowed up card and it doesn't work when powered up and won't reject, just disappeared down inside. Tried the 1-800 number from manual and get a bank, tried the tech support link but no tech support, just products for sale so sent an email to request refund but betting I won't even get a response. Just ordered a nice one from Garmin and am prepared to trash the Minolta literally.

Gayle King is racist and does not need to be on the TV news. Everything she pretty much says is towards the black race. I do not think this is very professional to do. You can tell by some of the other Anchors/Host when she makes the comments that they do not like what she is saying but they are probably told not to side against the other Anchors/Host

Ethnic personal care products, shaving products, deodorants in some instances, sinus relief products are all locked because those. Are. The. Products. That. Get. Ripped. Off. The. Most. No one is saying Black people are the perpetrators. It's a statement on the desirability of the products. Not the people you think are the only consumers to want them. Enough, folks.

Watched norah o'Donnell again tonight as she reported from North Carolina I believe. For the 1st 15 minutes she reported with her left hand on her left hip. Made her look like she thought she had something better to do. Very unprofessional looking. Also when another reporter said that some family members wanted to die because they lost family members Norah still had her hand on hip and her response lacked authentic compassion.

Stories on Hunter Biden criminal probe:0! Stories on Bidens impeachment/corruption/criminal probe probe:0! Stories on Border crisis:0! This is a no-news network. They only cover what they can safely show as a Democratic, socialist success. Anything else will be intentionally omitted. There is only one side of the story with CBS News, it's the Democratic, liberal left side. CBS makes sure Republicans and conservatives are always guilty of something, or the side they represent is wrong and racist! The sad 60 minutes interviews with the President and Vice president show how weak the network is, Biden and Harris new they'd get soft treatment. Thats the only reason they went there... (and nowhere else!). No tough questions, just a smooth Public Relations 20 minutes! Nora Odonnel, Gail King. Et al... it doesn't matter... they're all mean, biased, angry and Democrat.

Racism seems to come in many forms. This morning on LA's Channel 2 news, Gayle king said
"HILLBILLY" Elegy. About a movie, I understand that. But is It OK to say Racial slurs? Racist words include, Hillbilly, trailer trash, white trash, cracker & redneck. Just because same ignorant
Person make it a movie title, Does not mean that it should be ignorantly said on national TV. If we want racism to end then we need to stop using racist terms and talking about racism directed in one direction. Those kinds of words do not unify or bring together anyone. Black, white, We are all just people who need to stop putting labels, especially negative racist ignorant remarks that I heard on TV today. Sad

Once again CBS is using their gorilla strength to hold a cable company hostage and now we cannot watch the shows. Settle the rate issue w Direct TV! I refuse to pay CBS for all access and if not careful you will lose valuable viewers who give you ratings so in turn you have advertisers.

I grew up watching CBS news so it is a part of my family. I love the channel but have had to leave it all in the past. Its like giving up Coke and Dr. Pepper. You guys have become so very slanted and opinionated. You used to be a real news organization but now to get the news I have to search somewhere else. TOO bad you missed the perfect business opportunity to stay unbiased and just report the facts. Had you done so you would have been successful. Now, you are in the same category as CNN and MSNBC. GOOD bye NORAH- and ALL the Morning crew. Enjoy your liberal elitism.
