Did CBS's "60MINUTES" pull a Bait and Switch? Line up doesn't Include Tenant's Revelations?

[KoKo]

I've been "pumped" to watch Tenant reveal the stuff from his NEW BOOK that would "make my hair curl."

I just tuned into "60 Minutes" (after not watching them since 1999) and find that Tenant is NOT ON THEIR LIST of folks that they Promo'd.

Did I hear the WRONG THING...am I an IDIOT who didn't catch the HYPE for Tenant's Book or was he CANCELLED?

HELP! Me eyes aren't going along with the PROMO of the Show ...all of us WAITING FOR TENANT?

:shrug:

2. Ummmm the HYPE has been (over weekend starting Friday) that it would be TONIGHT!

SO....who was responsible for HYPING CBS's RATINGS saying it was TONIGHT?

Having been on this Board for MANY YEARS...when DU'ers say WATCH 60 Minutes this weekend for Tenant's REVELATIONS I would "take note of this."

After this CRAP ..."BAIT AND SWITCH" I will be sure "NOT" to WATCH ..."CBS 60 Minutes" because I was deceived!!!!!

DECEIVED!!!!!

GO FUCK YOURSELF CBS..if you are looking for RATINGS from Average Viewers by POSTING PLANTS on WEB SITES!

9. Woah!

Calm down!

It's next week. Always was next week.

I've never seen someone get so emotionally invested in someone whose name they can't even spell.

3. It may be being bumped because of VT shootings.

6. Tenant's BOOK PROMOTION...would be Cancelled for VT Killings?

You are KIDDING? Major Media having BLOCKBUSTER BOOk...with "Teasers" out on the Intenet about how TENANT REVEALS ALL...HAIR CURL...

AND...when I tune IN after YEARS OF ABSENCE....there's NO SHOW...and a DU'er tells me "You got the wrong date?" :shrug: You've GOTTA BE KIDDING or SCAMMING ME!

4. Thanks all but some "Trolls" must have been on DU hyping this thing

because I haven't watched that show in years...and NOW you tell me "it's been delayed" or "it wasn't promoted as THIS WEEKEND..but NEXT!...Yadda Yadda!

CBS sent PR People OUT on the INTERNET to PROMOTE A SHOW ...TWO WEEKS AHEAD?

:puke: Forget it. I'll wait until "C&L's" or "TPM" or other "liberal sites" do some "You Tubes" before I buy into that BAIT AND SWITCH CRAP AGAIN!

And...there were many folks here who got the "PR" and posted it ..encouraging us to TUNE IN to a "NO SHOW!!"

5. No bait & switch: the interview's scheduled for the 29th, the day before Tenet book release.

No change from the airdate reported last Monday in the WaPo:

7. I clearly understood that it was on next week - forget where I read it -

HOWEVER -

60 minutes tonight was devastating and heartbreaking.
Sure, there was the story about the Secret Service and profiling school shooters, which I allowed myself to get distracted through.

Then came the story about Iraq.

That was tough to watch.
They are such a beautiful people, the families that were profiled looked like my neighbors.
Fresh faced teens, loving parents fearful that today may be their last.

Bush has destroyed that country, and there is a special place reserved for him in hell for doing so.

Tenant will be on next week.
Chill.
Like he's going to tell us something we don't already know.

8. I think the mistake came from Larry Johnson

Tenet will start spilling his guts Sunday night on Sixty Minutes, which kicks off his publicity tour to hawk his book. But we don't have to wait till Sunday because David Ignatius offered an early preview last Sunday during an interview with Chris Matthews. Ignatius said that the book is:

10. AHHHH....Thanks! I got the "heads up" from Larry Johnson..reading his

post about this... I wonder how many other's "Kicked CBS ratings" looking for the Tenant Piece?

Many THANKS!
