Did WAFB Baton Rouge censor 60 Minutes 2 yet again Sept 15? |
|
If so, this is two weeks in a row that the local CBS affiliate has kept Baton Rouge viewers from seeing Dan Rather's reports on the Killian documents.
A more blatant example of Right-wing censorship of the news it would be hard to find.

2. Our Local affiliate had a movie scheduled, but changed to 60 Mins |
|
There was a crawler across the bottom that said something to the effect of: due to the late-breaking news content of tonight's 60 minutes the movie scheduled will begin at 2 am.
This is Rochester, NY CBS affiliate WROC, channel 8.

3. Yes, it did....must have been "transmission problems"....again |
|
We were able to see it here in Lafayette, but my cable WAFB showed a rerun of the mayoral debate. I can't understand why WAFB is not inundated by phone calls, emails, protests in front of their office. Do even repugs enjoy censorship, enjoy others deciding what they will see and hear? Write and call your cable/satellite provider and demand to see what you PAY for...I think they can exert pressure on WAFB. The local young dem organizations at LSU and Southern should be organizing street protests in front of the station. That should get the attention of other local TV stations, may get national attention. IMO
