Scott Pelley's Departing Statement Contains the Most Cringe-Inducing Quote Ever From a Lib "Journalist"

Last evening CBS News execs fired Scott Pelley after the 60 Minutes co-host demonstrated a level of arrogance that frankly we've come to expect from many "journalists" who would like everybody to believe they're "saving democracy" by serving as mouthpieces for one particular political party. Just one look at the people who are angered by the firing of Pelley says it all. Apparently "journalism" is the only career field where employees should be allowed to be massively insubordinate while still keeping their jobs.
Not only insubordinate, but also ridiculously ignorant buffoons and proven liars.
Pelley of course went out in a way that's not at all unexpected:
Ben Mullin (@BenMullin) ~ Scott Pelley on being fired: “I have been in combat in Afghanistan. I have been in combat in Iraq. I have been in the war zone in Ukraine multiple times, risking my life and the happiness of my family because of my devotion to the broadcast.”

BWHA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Scott Pelley preparing for this interview ... "Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me." ROTFLMAO at him! What an arrogant buffoon!
Scott Pelley has solidified himself as the CBS version of NBC's Brian Williams!
"I have been in combat in Afghanistan. I have been in combat in Iraq."
Yikes.
That guy makes Baron Munchausen sound humble.
Mollie Hemingway leads off the cringe-fest:
Mollie (@MZHemingway) ~ Even in a sea of unwarranted arrogance, this is the most cringe-inducing quote I have ever read from a left-wing journalist.
Buck Sexton (@BuckSexton) ~ This no talent assclown hasn't been "in combat" anywhere, ever. He's observed others in combat. That he doesn't know the difference is entirely on brand for him though. The Super douche of 60 Mins.
Yeah, Commander McBragg needs to give it a rest and go maybe start a podcast with Stephen Colbert now that he's got more free time.

JWF (@JammieWF) ~ A deranged Scott Pelley now imagining being a soldier.
Cabot Phillips (@cabot_phillips) ~ Only liberal reporters could engage in blatant insubordination, get fired for it, and then compare themselves to soldiers after.
Amazing, isn't it?
Excellent advice that Scott Pelley received earlier in life that he failed to heed ...
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
