I have to wonder who’s sweating now, after the latest news about former CBS investigative reporter Catherine Herridge.
The New York Post is reporting that Herridge is set to testify before the House Judiciary Committee in a “potentially explosive hearing” on April 11, at 9:30 a.m. Herridge, who had been working on aspects of the Hunter Biden scandal when she was fired, will testify about the circumstances behind her firing.
The theme of the questioning will be “Fighting for a Free Press: Protecting Journalists and their Sources,” according to the the report.
The Committee will also hear from SAG-AFTRA chief news & broadcast officer Mary Cavallaro, who will testify about what the union did in negotiations with CBS to return Herridge’s files after she was fired.
As we reported, there was a huge hullabaloo when the network seized her files after letting her go. In those files there may have been potential privileged information that she had from sources. That concerned and rightly disturbed people who cared about a free press.
Indeed, according to reports, Herridge had faced “roadblocks from higher-ups” over her coverage of Hunter Biden and come up on the wrong side of CBS president Ingrid Ciprian-Matthews. So it would be intriguing to hear when Herridge is asked about or chooses to dish on those questions.

Politicians are evil and money launder our tax money
Yeah, but Katherine Herridge has really nice legs.
The files don’t belong to Herridge and never did. They belong to her employer, CBS.
