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:
WATCH: @BariWeiss breaks down the leaked audio—obtained exclusively by The FP—from a CBS meeting in which their anchor was admonished for questioning Ta-Nehisi Coates on Israel:

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.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
