CBS Denies Claims That 60 Minutes Promo Photo Was Manipulated

CBS has refuted claims that a promotional image for the forthcoming season of 60 Minutes was digitally altered. Captured by Mark Seliger, the photograph showcases ten journalists, including Lesley Stahl, who appears to be leaning against an invisible surface. Some critics have raised concerns about potential manipulation. In response, Jennifer Adler, Senior VP of Communications for CBS News, clarified that 'there's a table behind her,' which is partially seen. Seliger, recognized for his contributions to Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, and GQ, remarked on the chemistry during the shoot. Notably, the photo was taken at the Oyster Bar in Grand Central Terminal, a site of historical importance for 60 Minutes, as it served as a CBS broadcast studio from 1939 to 1964.
