CBS News anchor Scott Pelley delivered a commencement speech warning that the rule of law and journalism are under attack. Some analysts suggest Pelley's recent public criticisms of CBS management are an attempt to "queer the deal" regarding Shari Redstone's efforts to sell Paramount Global. The term "queering the deal" is used here in the traditional sense of sabotaging a business merger or acquisition.

The departure of Les Moonves from CBS following sexual harassment allegations is linked to Shari Redstone's long-standing goal of merging CBS and Viacom. The scandal, which also involved executives like Jeff Fager and Don Hewitt, is viewed by some as a strategic move to clear the path for corporate reunification.
