CBS News has shelved a "60 Minutes" report on the rationale for war in Iraq because it would be "inappropriate" to air it so close to the presidential election, the network said on Saturday.
The report on weapons of mass destruction was set to air on Sept. 8, but was put off in favor of a story on President Bush's National Guard service which was heavily questioned. CBS News spokeswoman Kelli Edwards would not elaborate on why the timing of the Iraq report was considered inappropriate.
I'll tell you why. CBS is bowing to conservatives. They are scared they will be considered to have liberal bias and will be criticized by the right. Well, guess what guys - you already are! On both counts. I encourage anyone reading this to write to CBS and encourage them to run the story. Tell them you want the truth and not be intimidated by those who don't.
