Noem releases an unedited interview portion, alleging CBS whitewashed the criminal background of an individual at the center of a deportation case.
The content provides context about Kristi Noem's accusation against CBS. CBS edited parts of her interview regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 gang member. CBS claims the edits were for time constraints and align with their standards. The full interview is available, which somewhat counteracts the 'whitewashing' allegation. The fact-checking requires evaluating both the nature of the edits and the availability of the full content.

Noem releases an unedited interview alleging CBS whitewashed a criminal background in a deportation case.
The core of the claim is true as Noem has indeed released the unedited version claiming CBS's editing was misleading. This is contested by CBS, which states the cuts were for time constraints and the full interview is still accessible.
