While continuing to employ Dan Rather and Mary Mapes after using forged documents in a 60 Minutes story, CBS News fired the producer who cut into CSI:NY with the news of Arafat's death.
Saying that the producer was "overly aggressive," CBS apologized for the incident.
This incident seems minor compared to the blatant bias shown in the 60 Minutes story and subsequent denials and weak apologies from Rather. It seems that CBS' priorities and loyalties are misplaced.
