FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FROM: Les Moonves, CBS Chairman TO: Our Loyal Viewers RE: Upcoming Programming Changes ... Re: last Wednesday's broadcast of the Country Music Association Awards -- We dearly hope that during the star-studded tribute to country music legend Johnny Cash, any references to his hit song "A Boy Named Sue" did not offend either our fine religious right groups or our fine transgender groups. For purely creative reasons, all future CBS references to this song shall henceforth appear as "A Boy Named Whatever." ... To further demonstrate our commitment to artistic integrity, we will employ that once-every-12-minute-crawl for all our programming, including the uproarious "Everybody Loves Raymond," to assure you, our loyal viewers, that anything and everything you see is merely empty-tainment and that no inferences are to be drawn from anything, at any time. The Washington Post pokes fun at CBS for waffling on 'The Reagans'. The Network's Finest Hour |
