As the talking heads are fond of phrasing it - it has not been a good week for CBS.

Does CBS have any feet left to shoot?

Is this the same CBS that turned down the chance to show Passion Of The Christ because it was "too violent?"

It was accompanied by a voiceover from French doctor Frederick Maillez, who arrived at the crash scene at the Pont d'Alma tunnel and gave emergency first aid to the princess. He told viewers Diana's face was not injured and 'she still looked beauti ful' as he desperately tried to save her life.

Not exactly reassuring to note her beauty, when the doc should have been monitoring, oh, vitals (instead of the status of her lip gloss). Btw, I remember criticisms of the (French) method of triage--ie, trying to do too much at the scene, instead of transporting to a truama center. Med evacs helicopters are not commonplace as here.

I hope the British people are wise to See BS. They will stoop to ANY low. I am ashamed to say this is an American TV network. They are SCUM!

CBS has no respect for anyone or anything. There is absolutely no need to show these pics. I guess this is their way of getting back at Tony Blair for aligning himself with President Bush

This is inexcusable and appalling, and unfortunately it's not the most inexcusable and appalling thing about CBS. Just when you think the American "Mainstream Press" has hit rock bottom, like the Democrat Party it inexcusably and appallingly supports, it manages to sink even lower.

Did they find out Diana would have been a republican had she moved to America or something? This is disgusting and uncalled for. She deserved dignity and privacy in her last moments. The media was indeed the death of her, and they will never let her rest.

If there's one person I can't stand hearing about it's Princess Diana. ENOUGH about this woman.

'There are other ways of establishing the cause of Diana's death than showing pictures that even the paparazzi would not publish,' he added.

But the paparazzi sure did take the pictures. (And cashed the check!)

CBS has sunk to tabloid level. First they funded a hatchet job on Bush with the 9-11 Committee hearings and now this. Janet Jackson's "wardrode error" has started their decline to even new depths.

These twits are passe when CBS shamelessly lies about war and peace and the fate of millions but can't take this. Idiots all.
