If this is true, it's messed up. This is not the way you treat anyone, even if they make minimum wage or they are a network journalist. If he is being retained at 60 Minutes, he should walk. I like the guy. I think he is more professional than the other network anchors on the evening news. But I would not stick around an organization that treated me that way. I am confident he does not need the money. He could have another major job in 30 days. BTW....why did they refer to him as Poison Pelley ? --------- Scott Pelley is out at “CBS Evening News,” Page Six has exclusively learned. Sources tell us that ‘Poison Pelley’s’ office was being cleared out on Tuesday while the anchor was away on an assignment for the network’s news magazine “60 Minutes.” We’re told that he’s being shifted permanently to “60 Minutes.” Insiders tell us that CBS News president David Rhodes “is making [Pelley] move to ‘60 Minutes,’ ” and that the pair “don’t get on.” Another TV insider said while Pelley’s ratings have been down, “There’s also been friction between him and [Rhodes].” Added a source, “[Pelley] was pushed out of the ‘Evening News.’ It’s been coming for a long time. This could have been handled better — [Pelley] is away on a story, and they’re cleaning out his office. It’s not the correct way to treat the face of CBS news.” No replacement has yet been named, but CBS has a deep bench of anchors who can fill in. Sources say there was confusion on Tuesday among staff at CBS’s Hell’s Kitchen headquarters as workers began dismantling the office of Pelley — dubbed ‘Poison Pelley’ by Page Six after he yelled at a reporter in 2013, “You wouldn’t last 10 seconds at CBS News!” Others insist Pelley is moving to the “60 Minutes” offices. We reported in December that Pelley was on his way out of the anchor chair on the flagship news show — where he has sat since he succeeded Katie Couric in 2011. At the time, the network denied the story, telling us, “There’s no truth to this.” But now, there is a lot of truth to it. CBS News didn’t comment. http://pagesix.com/2017/05/30/scott-pelley-is-leaving-cbs-evening-news/
