Proof that the media is NOT LIBERAL!!
Tonight across the country, 60 Minutes was replaced with The Billy Graham Crusade.
http://www.tvguide.com/listings/index.asp?

I guess we are to believe it was 'just a coincidence' that 60 Minutes had scheduled a story about a group of reservists refusing to go to Iraq.
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/12/06/60II/main659336.shtml

Now if anyone out there continues to claim that the media, especially CBS, has a liberal bias, then they are just not playing with a full deck.

7. Depends on the market
I guess that is a decision each affiliate makes. I can't find it listed here but someone else here at DU said it is on at 2am in their area.

5. KC
But a poster from San Diego said it had been pre-empted there too. So I checked TV Guide listings and it looks like this happened all over the country. All you have to do is go to the TV Guide webpage and enter a zipcode.

If you got to see 60 Minutes, count your blessings. I really don't think it was aired in many markets tonight.

4. Holy Shitah!
It's happened! Our country has been taken over by religious zealots! (And believe me, that's just a cover.)

8. You lucky dog
But you guys elected a Dem senator too, didn't you? Here in KS, your neighbor to the east, we are knee deep in bible thumping conservatives.

10. I was amazed that they showed it in Chattanooga
Guess my mom's rather vitriolic letter to Channel 12 struck a chord with someone...:)
