CBS Means Never Having To Say You're Sorry

For being a large, multibillion-dollar network, CBS seems to have made quite a few mistakes lately. Number Ones, a prime-time collection of Michael Jackson's, was scheduled to run in November, but got rescheduled after his child molestation case broke. Oops. Then CBS executives gave the greenlight to a Ronald Reagan bio piece (that it now calls "fictitious") until enough people shouted for its removal and CBS backstepped. Oops. And who could forget the costume malfunction of all costume malfunctions during the Superbowl Halftime show. Major oops.

If a man has an affair with his wife, he can say that he is sorry; but trust is lost. If it happens again, more trust is lost and the apology seems less genuine. Three times? Any ladies sticking around for strike four?

Sorry CBS - I think its over between you and me.
