In a country that prides itself on fair elections and unbiased journalism, a new storm is brewing — and it centers around one of the most iconic television programs in history: 60 Minutes on CBS. As questions swirl about potential media interference in the 2020 and 2024 U.S. elections, many citizens are demanding transparency and accountability from networks once considered pillars of truth.
The image above poses a powerful question that’s been echoing across social media and conservative circles:
“Do you support a full investigation into CBS for interfering in the 2020 and 2024 elections?”
For millions of Americans, the answer is a resounding YES.
The Media’s Role in Our Democracy
In any functioning democracy, the media plays a critical role. Journalists are meant to report the truth, challenge those in power, and give citizens the information they need to make informed decisions. But what happens when the media becomes the power — and starts shaping public opinion in ways that affect election outcomes?
That’s the question at the heart of the growing controversy surrounding CBS and its flagship program, 60 Minutes.
For decades, 60 Minutes has enjoyed the trust of the American public. But in recent years, that trust has started to erode. Critics claim the show has abandoned journalistic neutrality, opting instead for narratives that support particular political agendas.
And when that agenda crosses into the territory of election influence, it becomes more than just media bias — it becomes a threat to democracy itself.
What the Critics Say
During the 2020 presidential election, CBS and other legacy outlets were accused of suppressing stories unfavorable to Joe Biden while simultaneously running negative coverage on Donald Trump. From the Hunter Biden laptop saga to selective interview editing, the pattern was clear to many: CBS had chosen a side.
And now, as the 2024 election draws near, many fear it’s happening again.
Republican lawmakers, independent journalists, and millions of everyday Americans are calling for a full-scale investigation into whether CBS and 60 Minutes improperly influenced public perception and voter behavior during two of the most consequential elections in modern U.S. history.
If these allegations are proven true, they don’t just reflect poor journalistic ethics — they may represent a coordinated attempt to tilt the outcome of national elections.
Trust Is on the Line
According to a recent Gallup poll, only 34% of Americans trust mass media to report the news fully, accurately, and fairly. That’s one of the lowest levels in history.
CBS, once considered a gold standard in television journalism, now finds itself at the center of a credibility crisis. And it’s not just political conservatives who are concerned. Even moderate and independent voters are beginning to question whether the mainstream press can still be trusted.
If media organizations are allowed to operate without oversight, without checks, and without consequences, what’s to stop them from acting as unelected political kingmakers?
The Power of 60 Minutes
Make no mistake — 60 Minutes has unmatched reach and influence. With millions of weekly viewers, the stories it chooses to air (and those it chooses to ignore) have real consequences.
In 2020, critics argue that 60 Minutes deliberately avoided or underplayed stories that might have swayed voters away from Joe Biden — including serious concerns about his family’s overseas business dealings and his mental fitness for office.
Likewise, critics claim the program often painted President Trump in a consistently negative light, even when his administration made significant achievements. Selective coverage, slanted interviews, and editorial spin became the norm rather than the exception.
And with the 2024 race heating up, many Americans worry it’s happening all over again.
Why an Investigation Is Necessary
An independent investigation into CBS and 60 Minutes wouldn’t be about silencing the media. It would be about restoring trust, defending transparency, and ensuring that no media outlet is above accountability.
We need answers to key questions:
Did CBS and 60 Minutes deliberately withhold information relevant to voters?
Were editorial decisions influenced by political agendas or outside pressure?
Were efforts made to interfere in the democratic process, even indirectly?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then serious consequences must follow — because democracy depends on truth, not manipulation.

The Future of Free Press
We believe in the First Amendment. We believe in the right of the press to report freely. But freedom of the press is not a license to mislead. It is a sacred responsibility — and when that responsibility is abused, it becomes our duty as citizens to speak up.
Because if we don’t hold the media accountable, who will?
The 2024 election will be one of the most defining moments in American history. Every vote counts. Every voice matters. And every truth — no matter how uncomfortable — must come to light.
