Paul: It has been years since CBS has produced a prime time evening program that I can stand to watch for a minute, let alone an hour. This sad and wicked instance exploitation only underlines that fact. John Figliozzi

CBS TV is being rightly crucified in the UK by no
less a person than Tony Blair for showing pictures of Princess Diana dying after
the car crash in Paris in 1997. The people who watch American TV are
clearly operating double standards here. Firstly, they round on CBS for
daring to show Janet Jackson's breasts, an incident so trivial it hardly
deserves comment. Yet a couple of months later they sit in front of their
TV screens watching many of the same CBS stations showing the sickening pictures
of Princess Diana. I hope and trust that those of you in the USA reading
this message did not stoop so low as to watch your local CBS affiliates last
night.
Certainly if I was a watcher of CBS TV in the
States I would be writing to my local affiliate leaving them in no doubt that
they should not have shown such pictures, which surely go beyond the
pale!
Now, back to the short-wave wireless.
