CBS News delayed airing a 60 Minutes report on El Salvador's CECOT prison, where the Trump administration has deported hundreds of immigrants, citing the need for more reporting. The decision, made under new editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, has sparked internal debate over potential bias. Reporter Sharyn Alfonsi described the move as political, despite the segment passing fact-checks.
El Salvador's prisons operate at 157% capacity, exceeding Brazil's 140%, amid a blackout of public data under President Nayib Bukele. The Central American nation's incarceration rate is the world's highest, with reports of human rights violations. Despite the 2023 opening of Cecot, the vacancy deficit continues.

Since January 2023, 14 Brazilian politicians, including deputies and a governor, have visited El Salvador to tour the Cecot prison, inspired by Nayib Bukele's security policies. These trips cost at least R$407,200 in public funds. The facility is praised by visitors but criticized for torture allegations and mass incarceration.
