Los Angeles prosecutors are investigating sexual assault allegations made against disgraced artist and music executive Sean “Diddy” Combs, an official said Tuesday. When asked if Combs was the target of a probe concerning alleged attacks against a male victim in 2020 and 2021, a spokesperson for L.A. County District Attorney Nathan Hochman confirmed the investigation. “In the fall of 2025, LAPD and LASD each presented a separate sexual assault investigation for one victim to the LA County District Attorney’s Office,” the DA’s rep said in a statement to NBC News. “We are reviewing the case.” |

“60 Minutes” executive producer Nick Bilton pressed ahead Tuesday with plans to speak individually with staff members, a day after correspondent Scott Pelley confronted him during a heated meeting, according to a source with direct knowledge of the matter. Bilton, a documentary filmmaker and technology journalist, laid out those plans during a meeting with “60 Minutes” employees on Monday morning. But that gathering was overshadowed by Pelley’s fiery criticism of Bilton and CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss. Pelley, speaking firmly and at times angrily, told Bilton that Weiss was “murdering” the venerable broadcast newsmagazine, a staple of the CBS lineup since 1958. |
