For those of us upset with CBS last nite with Arafat vs CSI
2004-11-11
CBS NEWS interrupted the final minutes of Wednesday night's episode of CSI: NEW YORK in order to air a special report about the death of Yasser Arafat. CBS has apologized and says it will rebroadcast the episode, in its entirety FRIDAY at 9PM CENTRAL TIME. "An overly aggressive CBS News producer jumped the gun with a report that should have been offered to local stations for their late news. We sincerely regret the error. The episode of CSI: NEW YORK will be rebroadcast Friday, Nov. 12."

#5  I'd agree with you, but Arafat was repeatedly declared dead, then alive/coma/deeply-unconscious/everything-working-but-the-brain. The inevitable wasn't exactly news big enough to run a special report on. Save it for 60 Minutes.

#4  Don't want the news to get in the way of the revenue from commercials entertainment!

#3  How could they complete that inquiry so quickly and they still haven't any results for Rathergate?
