Apparently they're doing this to create a safe space for their journalists.

CBS News staff told not to refer to Jerusalem as being in Israel: report

CBS News reportedly ordered its staff not to say Israel's capital city of Jerusalem is in Israel.

The Free Press reported Wednesday that Mark Memmott, CBS News' senior director of standards and practices, had emailed all employees in late August telling them to "be careful with some terms when we talk or write about the news" regarding the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.

Included on his list of controversial terms was "Jerusalem." "Do not refer to it as being in Israel," Memmott wrote.

This occurred after their left-wing employees freaked out over an interview of an anti-Israel author.

CBS leadership reassured offended staff members that following a review, they concluded that the interview did not meet the company’s "editorial standards," the Free Press reported, which obtained audio of the staff meeting.

While a source familiar with the matter told Fox News Digital that Dokoupil would not be punished over the interview, he was forced to meet with the network’s in-house Race and Culture Unit following complaints. According to The New York Times, the conversation "focused on Mr. Dokoupil’s tone of voice, phrasing and body language" during the interview.

The ideological takeover of CBS newsroom appears to be in full swing.
