CBS sells your vote to its own sponsor
Source headline: "CBS Touts Using Data From Kalshi, Their Sponsor, in Election Coverage"
Civic Sentinel Assessment

As the piece puts it,“CBS has become the latest news outlet to announce that it is using data from Kalshi the outlet’s “prediction market sponsor” in coverage of the midterm elections alongside polling data.”
