Longtime “60 Minutes” correspondent Steve Kroft recently told Bill O’Reilly on his “We’ll Do It Live!” podcast that he “hated” his time on the CBS news show.

“’60 Minutes’ was really appealing, and I thought I wasn’t really sure I was ever going to get there. I didn’t really seriously think about it. When I did, there’s so many things that, first of all, the job is just 24 hours a day,” Kroft said. “I mean, you may get a couple hours of bad sleep. Beepers going off, getting on jets, going here and there, the whole thing, then coming back and spending, you know, three or four days writing the script, and then going to the screenings and then getting on, starting it all over again.”
