Marjorie Taylor Greene Dishes Some Hard Truths To 60 Minutes

"The Guardian UK ran a heartening story on Monday 4/3/23, headlined, “CBS Faces Backlash Over 60 Minutes Interview With Marjorie Taylor Greene.” The sub-headline explained, “Far-right, pro-Trump congresswoman uses appearance on flagship current affairs show to defend calling Democrats paedophiles.”
Was that wrong?

By “backlash,” the Guardian meant the blue-on-blue outrage that erupted yesterday against reliable liberal anchor Leslie Stahl after her Sunday night interview with MTG on 60 Minutes. Stahl is catching Hades even though the anchor challenged Greene, scoffed, and rolled her eyes in a most virtuous way after Greene held to her opinion.

For example, Mother Jones editor David Corn whined, “It’s a failure on CBS and Stahl’s part to give [Greene] such an unimpeded platform to spread such garbage.”

In other words, Shut her up! Silence that wrongthink!

MTG was upbeat. The Guardian reported that when asked how she thought the interview had gone, Greene told Semafor: “I thought it was pretty good.”
