On Tuesday, CBS News announced it issued takedown orders for a 60 Minutes segment that Global TV published on its app on Monday.

The segment in question, a 13-minute piece by reporter Sharyn Alfonsi, is about Venezuelan men who say they were tortured after being sent to a prison in El Salvador by U.S. President Donald Trump.

“On Monday, our Canadian broadcast partner, Global TV, mistakenly published on its app the “Inside CECOT” segment that CBS News decided to delay for a future broadcast,” a representative said in an e-mailed statement to The Globe and Mail.

“While Global TV has removed the episode from their app, this segment has since been posted on social and digital media. Paramount’s content protection team is in the process of routine take down orders for the unaired and unauthorized segment.”

60 Minutes segment pulled by CBS was available on Global TV website

The representative added that the planned broadcast of 60 Minutes had been sent to Global TV on Friday night. The following day, CBS News sent out a change order informing Global TV that a new version of the broadcast would be sent.

The correct version of the program was broadcast on Global TV on Sunday night, but the incorrect version was posted to the Global TV app.

In a note to CBS colleagues widely reported by U.S. news media, Ms. Alfonsi said the story had already been cleared by CBS’s lawyers and its standards division before Bari Weiss, editor-in-chief of CBS News, had it pulled. Ms. Alfonsi said Ms. Weiss wanted the story held because Trump administration officials had refused to be interviewed for it.

Representatives for Corus Entertainment, Global TV’s owner, did not immediately respond to The Globe’s request for comment.
