Margaret Brennan’s total ignorance of the WWII Nazi German history is appalling!
Another royal example of how out of touch CBS is on so many fronts!
I have cancelled recordings for CBS Sunday Morning & CBS Saturday Mornings. I can no longer tolerate the one sided news. I have tried to watch the “other side” for well rounded coverage, but there is the final straw!
Not one word from CBS News on Margaret Brennan’s views of WWII. Then Sunday night’s 60 Minutes!!! Nauseating to say the least.
CBS use to be the best ! New lows!
So sad!!!

Margaret Brennan is one of the most negative, rude, and unprofessional. She lacks the ability to express emotions unless they are her own options. Very poor journalism!!
I now longer watch CBS due to individuals like Ms. Margaret who antagonizes her guests, especially those who do not agree with her. She should be terminated from CBS!!! Tolerance for her rude interruptions and her high opinion of herself are not worth wasting my time.

CBS News has always been a biased news program, favoring the Liberals and Democrats. Of course, the hosts of Face The Nation will represent that biased view. If you want REAL political interviews, check out News Nation. They are more even keel and can interview politicians without numerous interruptions and negative slanting of their guests and the news.
Just so sad that Americans believe the crap being aired by CBS News, Fox News, ABC and NBC news. All politically motivated and have abandoned their oath to reporting the TRUTH in the news.

Margaret needs to be fired, I've stopped watching because of her and her biased discriminating against Republicans, and true Democrats, the media is an evil presence that's being allowed to corrupt its viewers, we need our news but not dingbat opinions we just want local news and world reports along with our weather, and sports, let's bring back old America and it's morals, and values, and bring back In God We trust!

I have watched for 2 years she always pushes guests to get the answer SHE wants interrupting talking over the guests answering. She needs to be replaced before policymakers refuse to appear on the show. Ratings are down for a reason

I emphatically dislike Margaret Brennan, she is rude, unprofessional, and lacks the ability to express emotions. Her guest is constantly being attacked by her, and giving her opinion is more important. She is antagonizing Chuck Schumer as I write this. Margaret takes one statement and forces the narrative to be negative and self-serving.

Margaret Brennan and Norah O’Donnell are a negative for excellent journalism. Tolerance for rude interruptions and self love lies outside my need for news.
