Aside from the elites employed at CBS, does anyone really believe the CBS had any credibility?
Amazingly, yes. Our local talk radio uses CBS News, and while they express [I think ratings-driven rather than ethical] concern about the forgery flap, they defend the CBS News organization. They read this piece on the air a few times a day. I don't know if they share their concern with their owner, Saga Communications.
Like many of you, we are very concerned about the CBS News document controversy. WGAN has been an affiliate of CBS Radio News for many years because they provide more services and breaking news coverage than any other radio news network. Many national radio networks have come and gone, but CBS has been providing award-winning radio news broadcasts for decades.We are monitoring the situation closely. The CBS radio and television divisions are almost entirely separate, but like you, we want to be sure that the news reported on WGAN is as accurate and balanced as possible. We have shared our concerns with the network.
No matter what the outcome of this controversy, we want you to know that our top priority continues to be bringing you the best local and national news coverage in the state of Maine.
