Based Underground is now a conservative news aggregator AND curated newsletter.
Say, remember when CBS News put anchor Tony Dokoupil through a Maoist struggle session for the crime of asking tough questions to Ta-Nehisi Coates for his ignorant take on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? They rushed to hire a “DEI strategist and trauma trainer” to assuage their outraged staff, angry that Dokoupil asked Coates to account for his fanciful assertions in his book, almost as though no one at CBS News knows what an actual interview looks like.
Bari Weiss got the leaked audio of the staff meeting called to humiliate Dokoupil and pronounced herself aghast:

All of this provides context for yet another CBS News scandal — and this may be the most disgusting yet.
National Review’s Ryan Mills reports that the network has hailed and promoted the work of their producer in Gaza, Marwan Al Ghoul, on whom they rely for news in the war, since foreign journalists are excluded from the area. A new report from the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (CAMERA) shows that Al Ghoul routinely makes anti-Semitic remarks, has displayed considerable bias against the Israelis both before and during the war, and that his cameraman son who also works for CBS may be even worse:
Al Ghoul’s Facebook posts over the last year indicate that he is a vocal critic of Israel. On several occasions he’s accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza, a false but common belief among Palestinians. In a Facebook post on January 12, he thanked South Africa, which was making the case at the United Nations that Israel was committing genocide.
Al Ghoul has alleged that the Israel Defense Forces are committing war crimes against children and accused Israeli president Benjamin Netanyahu of stupidity. In December, he accused Israel of killing innocent people to satisfy its instinct for bloodshed.
In a post on June 8, he expressed disapproval of an Israeli raid that freed four hostages Hamas had captured and held in civilian homes. He accepted Hamas’s contention that more than 200 civilians were killed in the operation — the IDF reported that the casualty numbers were much lower — and failed to note that many of the dead were terrorists.
