“What Kind of F*cking Bullsh*t is This?” – Megyn Kelly GOES OFF After Catching 60 Minutes Fraudulently Splicing Pete Hegseth Interview to Push Pro-Israel Narrative (VIDEO)

Former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly went off this week on CBS and Bari Weiss this week, saying they “just cannot seem to help themselves making deceptive edits” after they spliced an interview with Pete Hegseth to misrepresent his comments and run cover for the foreign state of Israel. 

“They do not give a sh*t about misleading you over at CBS, the old CBS, or the new CBS, which has a brand new agenda,” Kelly said, accusing CBS of “trying to shove Israel into the debate” by completely changing the framing of a question in post-interview edits.

CBS and its parent company, Paramount, were previously forced to pay millions of dollars to President Trump and agreed to change their editorial policy in a settlement with President Trump following the infamous edited “60 Minutes” interview with Kamala Harris in 2024.

Last year, the network and its parent company were acquired by Skydance Media, led by David Ellison, the son of billionaire Larry Ellison. Skydance is now one of the world’s largest and most powerful media conglomerates, controlling CNN, CBS, HBO, MTV, Paramount+, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, Showtime, TNT, TBS, Adult Swim, and more, following the acquisition of Warner Bros Discovery after Netflix pulled out of a bidding war with Paramount Skydance. Netflix notably pulled out, allowing Skydance to proceed with the deal, after Attorney General Pam Bondi opened an antitrust inquiry into Warner’s already agreed-upon deal with Netflix.

Under Ellison and Skydance, the Free Press co-founder Bari Weiss now serves as CBS’s new editor in chief.

So, naturally, with Trump allies taking over the media landscape, you’d expect the media to be fairer and more honest, but it appears that’s not the case.

In a recent interview with Hegseth, CBS used tactics similar to those previously used with Kamala Harris. They altered the question posed to Hegseth, making it appear that he was defending Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s prosecution of the war in Iran, which Hegseth has admitted isn’t always in alignment with US objectives.

“Do you want to address that criticism?” host Major Garrett asks Hegseth after a narrator says, “Some normally enthusiastic supporters of the President have criticized him, suggesting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pulled the US into a war that, to their minds, did not put American interests first.”

Then, as if Hegseth was defending Netanyahu and Israel, in response to arguments that Israel pulled the US into the war, the clip then shows Hegseth telling Garrett, “All I know is, I’m in the room every day, and I see how President Trump operates and what he’s putting first, and it’s America, Americans, and American interests.”

But in the full unedited version of the interview, Hegseth is asked about unspecified criticisms, several of which have nothing to do with Israel, from some on the right, not about Israel or Netanyahu. He goes on to defend the Trump Administration’s actions in Iran with no mention of Israel.

WATCH:

Garrett: You mentioned America first. Some who identify with that movement, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Marjorie Taylor Greene, have said, from their perspective, this isn’t an America First campaign. Do you want to address that criticism?

Hegseth: All I know is I’m in the room every day, and I see how President Trump operates and what he’s putting first, and it’s America, Americans, and American interests at every level. How long should our bases be tolerating thousands of short range ballistic missiles and one way attack drones pointing at our bases and our people? After 47 years of Americans being targeted and killed, the men I served with in combat in Iraq, coming home with no arms and no legs, targeted by Iranian EFPs, thousands of Americans killed, Beirut.

You want to go back? We can go back to how long? I mean, the regime itself is premised on Death to America. So, 47 years, thousands of missile,s and an unrelenting pursuit of nuclear ambitions. I mean, President Trump’s right. When he says we obliterated their nuclear program, he’s right. We did. We dropped those bombs exactly where they needed to be, set them back. But that doesn’t mean they’ve stopped their pursuit. Doesn’t mean in the back of their mind they’re thinking, well, maybe we’ll wait it out and keep— they’ve miscalculated the resolve of President Trump. Ask Nicholas Maduro about that. Ask, you know, the Houthis about that. Look at the southern border. Look at the cartels and drug boats. When President Trump says he’ll take care of something, he’s going to take care of it.

While the change is seemingly minimal, the messaging is very clearly altered to reflect a pro-Israel agenda.

Megyn Kelly went off on Monday, calling CBS out for dishonestly editing yet another interview. “What kind of fucking bullsh*t is this?”

“Obviously, we’ve got a lot of questions about this war, as I made clear last week, we’re still supporters of President Trump entirely. Doesn’t mean you have to agree with every decision the man makes, and we support our troops, and we support success in this mission now that it has been started. But we have a lot of questions about this war.”

She continued, “Some are about Israel’s role, obviously. Some are about gas prices, as we mentioned a minute ago. Many are about whether this is good for the American people, whether, as we mentioned on this show, we voiced our objections last Monday, we’re now subjecting the homeland to more potential terrorism attacks, remember? That was one of the main things I said, that I was very worried, having been at Fox News for 20 years in the war on terror, that we were now going to start to see more domestic terror attacks, which we had tamped down, which we’d been doing rather well on. That was one of my main things.”

Kelly then played a clip of Marjorie Taylor Greene outlining other reasons Americans may oppose war with Iran, which don’t have anything to do with Israel. “We live our ordinary lives, and we don’t feel threatened by Iran. We don’t walk around thinking that in any moment an Iranian ballistic missile is going to land on our head,” Greene said in the clip. “72% of Americans can’t afford health insurance. 58% of Americans can’t afford car insurance. 67% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. 31% of Americans can’t afford their back taxes. 50% of Americans are in credit card debt, massive credit card debt. That’s where we are in America.”

Additionally, tens of millions of illegal aliens still walk freely in our country and will likely be able to vote in the next election because Senate RINOs refuse to pass the SAVE Act.

“They do not give a sh*t about misleading you over at CBS, the old CBS, or the new CBS, which has a brand new agenda. The left will tell you that it’s pro MAGA. It’s not pro MAGA, trust me, watch two minutes of the evening news or the morning news. It is not pro MAGA at all, but it is pro Israel,” Kelly added. “CBS manipulated the Q and A in order to rehabilitate Netanyahu in a way that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth was not doing in that answer. Do you understand? This is ridiculous. Welcome to the new CBS, same as the old CBS, deceptive editing, deceptive manipulations, meant to push their own agenda.”
