Republicans are investigating CBS after the 'scary' firing of journalist Catherine Herridge, who was investigating Hunter Biden and the laptop scandal. Chairman Jim Jordan, speaking at CPAC, set a March 1 deadline for CBS's Ciprián-Matthews to explain the decision to terminate Herridge and seize her personal files. Senator Ted Cruz, on his show Verdict, criticized CBS for initially retaining Herridge's notes post-firing and called for her reinstatement after CBS decided to return her property. CBS has been labeled 'fascist propagandists' by critics, while Herridge is praised as a true journalist. Theories circulate that Herridge's firing by Paramount, CBS's parent company, was due to her being a 'known thorn' in the Biden administration's side. Concerns about the inclusion of privileged data from Herridge's assignments at Fox News and CBS in the seized materials have been raised. Additionally, Cruz mentioned Herridge's work on stories involving the 'Biden Crime Family' and the death of Alexei Navalny.
One concern is that the materials might include privileged data from Ms. Herridge’s previous and current assignments at Fox News and CBS. https://t.co/n3nOAJX1kp
