Why did I think that CBS had been owned by Viacom for years already? Were

The original Viacom owned CBS for several years, until the company decided to
split in the mid-00s due to stock market strategy (and as a solution to an
internal power struggle between Les Moonves and whoever the guy in charge of
MTV was at the time, over who would replace Sumner Redstone when h

gained in the Paramount Parks deal. But that's neither here nor there.

Minor correction - the ORIGINAL Viacom was spun off of CBS to act as their
syndication arm; they were forced to divest in the early '70s. In the late
90s, THAT version of Viacom ultimately bought Westinghouse (which, by then,
had bought CBS and renamed itself after the network). They split agai
Per the 'pedia, Cedar Fair terminated their licensing agreement with CBS
for Paramount properties (like Star Trek) in 2007-2008. As for the parks

some have been sold.
It wouldn't be in CBS's best interest to go after Cedar

Carlson is a racist denying the existence of racists. I guess the segment
was well produced, but to what end? Whose mind was swayed? What point was
made? FoxNews hosts are offensive morons. That’s not new. They get slapped
on the wrist with paid vacations to give the pretense of punishment. That’s

He will be back. Or he’ll start a streaming service to be racist online. Or
he’ll run for office and win. Hardly a victory for the rest of us.

Tying up most of the network stations (ABC left). Cops came to the guy's

life-threatening). Neighbourhood in panic. As of now they're talking with
