"I come back and a soap opera is on," Watters said."CBS jumps out of it, and I'm thinking to myself, what's the difference between this and a soap opera? It is a bunch of cliques of people talking about their feelings. They have opinions, they have concerns. You know what the bottom line was today? They asked straight up, was there a bribe? No. Did anybody ask you to bribe anybody? No. Was there extortion? No.
