The realized they'd made a mistake, and they made a change to correct it. Good for them.

I don't see how moving this piece of garbage from CBS to Showtime fixes anything.

I'm done with CBS forever. And if that slander of a great man and his wife airs on Showtime, I'm done with all of Viacom's properties.

Right... but it DID have to do with being a total piece of lies trashing a living President, even stooping to make up "quotes" and scenes.

You misunderstood. It's called dramatization (sarcasm).

The heat needs to be kept up on Viacom, and on CBS itself (it's advertizers are still vulnerable to pressure), until this turkey production hits the land fill.

But I want to see it!

It’s sounds funny, in a cheeseball bad cinema way.

Sounds like something "Baghdad Bob" would say.

I just wish liberals would use more of this kind of thinking when their lives depend on it. Like "Sure - sharks and chum in the water are pure coincidence. And go ahead - jump on that third rail - it's just there for looks. Hey, and there's a thunderstorm...good time to put up that UN flagpole you've been babblin' about."

"Now Hallmark Entertainment!!!! (they are distributing this abroad) "

Do you have the phone number and email and snail mail addresses for Hallmark? It's outrageous that they would distribute this piece of trash abroad.

But the controversy was caused by the inaccuracies, so what's their point?

See how good I am? That was my quote... hehe

Barbara Streisand.

If it was inacuracies why did viacom move it from CBS to Showtime UNCUT?

CBS had nothing to do with this, it was Viacom bosses.

Moving it to Showtime is as good as deep sixing it. Ever look at what's playing on Showtime?...they keep running Water World and other Kevin Costner drek.

Well, I have to admit I was looking forward to hearing Ronny tell Nancy that he was the Antichrist. What we actually saw of the screenplay could have fit right into Plan Nine From Outer Space.

Oh yes, sorry. I will flog myself with a hollyweird noodle and go back to "drama" class. (Which follows right after "journalism" instruction.)

CBS is trying to cover it's left flank, I see. The liberals are screaming about how they've knuckled under to "censorship."

I believe it. After all the invasion of Afghanistan had nothing to do with 9-11 right. Right.

ping to #13

Is there any way to superimpose a cbs logo on top of the picture of Baghdad Bob?

That'd be cool.

Especially if we could get CBS's news release about their decision having nothing to do with the controversy.

Probably Moonves trying to like like it was he and not Viacom that "fixed" his blunder.

Welcome to the world of FR Mr. Moonves.
