Freed from prison two weeks ago, Martha Stewart is planning multiple TV projects to continue repairing her battered image. But she might not like what CBS her onetime broadcast partner is cooking up.
Stewart, who's planning to star in a new version of NBC's "The Apprentice" and host a syndicated lifestyle show next season, will be the subject of a two-hour unauthorized TV movie that CBS is rushing into production in Toronto later this month, possibly for telecast during the May ratings "sweep," which helps set the rates that local stations charge advertisers.

C-BS, that is enough for me. It won't be watched so who cares?

Things ain't over between us Martha!
Cybil already did this Gig. Why on Earth would anyone watch yet another Martha Movie let alone the first one - Pure tabloidism IMO but not really surprising from cBS or any MSM for that matter. They must be pretty confident that they've got us 'Trained' to tune into their drivel.
bttt
Leave the lady alone! She has done the time even if she didn't do the crime. She certainly exhibits more class than the MSM or SeeBS! Boycott the show and its sponsors.
Actually forget Martha. I`m waiting for the cBS movie about Hitlery. "Hitlery: The rise of evil" That lady who payed Nurse Rachet would be perfect. "Fire the travel office or there will be hell to pay!" "Make Vince look like he committed suicide or there will be hell to pay" "Bill, pardon those terrorists so I can get votes for Senator or there will be hell to pay!"
