This is not a problem in later versions of ubuntu / firefox. I now use
Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver and the firefox that comes with it and this
is not a problem at all.

Title:
Freezes when reading the website cbsnews.com
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Using ububtu 12.04.Firefox 49.0.2.
Firefox freezes completely when reading the site cbsnews.com. It
brings up a popup window that says "unresponsive script" and gives the
option of stop script or continue but none of those buttons work. So I
terminate firefox by right clicking on the launch icon in the unity
side bar and chosing quit which does a force quit.
This only happens on cbsnews.com when there is twitter feed on the left side
of the webpage.
In all other sites FF works well.
