Oh, you mean when uncle Wally was lying about the Vietnam War? I don’t think CBS was ever objective. It’s more accurate to say that we didn’t have alternative sources so we didn’t know that CBS news was biased.

Was that before or after these two:

RICHARD M. COHAN, Senior Producer of CBS political news said: “We are going to impose OUR AGENDA on the coverage by dealing with issues and subjects that WE choose to deal with.”

RICHARD SALANT, former President of CBS News stated: “Our job is to give people not what they want, but what WE decide they ought to have.”
