It's a war of the worlds at CBS News.
Ten people familiar with the workings of CBS News say the Paramount Skydance unit is veering toward dysfunction, with a management team led by Bari Weiss that doesn't value the standards held by veteran journalists - and a staff that views its editor-in-chief and her hand-picked senior staff with great skepticism, owing to her lack of experience managing mainstream media assets.
"I kind of think of ads as like a last resort for us as a business model," Sam Altman, chief executive officer of OpenAI, said back in 2024.

My understanding is that particular weapon has a twitchy trigger, meaning slight top of barrel touch and the weapon can discharge.
IMO it was handled with care, so its not negligent discharge, its an accidental accidental (gun defect).
Some lawyers have mentioned SIG might be culpable in this case.

You keep talking about this like you have a clue.
It has nothing to do with the trigger. In the handful of incidences where a defect has been proven, it's been found to be due to worn/weak springs in the secondary safety within the striker housing. Weak spring = safety doesn't engage, allowing striker to impact the primer if the gun is jolted the right way.
In any case, I see no reactions by any of the agents to indicate a negligent discharge. At least two officers would have been struck by debris caused by the round spalling if it had gone off and you would have at least seen a reaction from the guy holding it.
