Los Angeles<\/a> mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt softened his criticism of CBS News on Friday after the network posted a full version of an interview he previously slammed as a “hit piece” tied to coverage of the Palisades wildfire recovery.<\/p>\n

“A new era of responsible journalism!” Pratt wrote Friday on X after CBS posted the extended interview online. “Thank you to CBS for posting our full interview, so the voters can hear from their next Mayor!”<\/p>\n

The post marked a sharp shift from Pratt\u2019s comments a day earlier, when he accused CBS of unfairly editing footage filmed at the site of his destroyed Pacific Palisades home<\/a> following the 2025 wildfires.<\/p>\n

“People are done with these skeezy political tricks, and I\u2019m done with CBS<\/a>,” Pratt wrote Thursday on X. “They\u2019ll never get a word from me for my next 8 years as mayor. Adios!”<\/p>\n

Pratt\u2019s initial criticism came after CBS aired segments featuring the former “The Hills” star discussing wildfire recovery efforts, homelessness and his independent campaign against incumbent Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass.<\/p>\n

In the earlier post, Pratt accused the network of coordinating with Bass’ team on the edited package.<\/p>\n

“CBS filmed with me on my burned out lot for over an hour, and they turned it over to Karen Bass\u2019 PR team to edit it into a comical 5 minute hit piece with clips from<\/a> \u2018The Hills,\u2019” Pratt wrote.<\/p>\n

Pratt also claimed CBS changed course after fact-checking Bass during a mayoral debate discussion tied to the Palisades Fire<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“After CBS embarrassed Karen Bass by fact-checking<\/a> her debate lies about the Palisades Fire, they clearly got the call,” Pratt wrote.<\/p>\n

CBS later posted the full interview online after Fox News Digital reported on Pratt’s criticism and cited a source familiar with the production who said no outside parties were involved in editing the segment.<\/p>\n

In the televised interview, CBS correspondent Adam Yamaguchi questioned Pratt about his lack of political experience<\/a> and uphill path in a heavily Democratic-voting Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

“Why should voters believe that you, who don\u2019t have any experience in [the political] realm, can actually be the solution?” Yamaguchi asked Pratt in one segment.<\/p>\n

Pratt defended his candidacy by arguing city leadership has failed to address ongoing crises.<\/p>\n

“I may not have the experience, but I have the common sense to say, \u2018This is not working,\u2019” Pratt responded.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to Spencer Pratt and CBS for comment, but did not immediately hear back.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
