TELECOMMUNICATIONS: PLEASE RELAY TO ALL CBS STATIONS TO: GROUP OWNER, GENERAL MANAGER, STATION MANAGER, GENERAL SALES MANAGER, PROGRAM DIRECTOR FEBRUARY 3, 2004 WE ARE IMPLEMENTING ADDITIONAL MEASURES TO ENHANCE BROADCAST STANDARD PROTECTIONS FOR SUNDAY'S GRAMMY AWARDS. PLEASE SEE BELOW. BEST. . . . PETER K. SCHRUTH PRESIDENT CBS AFFILIATE RELATIONS **** CBS TO IMPLEMENT ENHANCED DELAY OF GRAMMY AWARDS Additional Measure Will Allow for Video Editing CBS announced today plans to enhance their ability to edit out any inappropriate and unexpected events from the Sunday, Feb. 8 broadcast of the "46th Annual Grammy Awards" on CBS. The enhancement will include the ability to delete both inappropriate audio and video footage from the broadcast. Using a five second delay, CBS has traditionally employed procedures that allow only for the elimination of inappropriate audio. This new enhancement will accomplish both. The precise length of the new delay has yet to be determined. The new procedure, which is being coordinated with the Recording Academy, is being put in place to safeguard against any unexpected and inappropriate content being broadcast during the awards ceremony. The "46th Annual Grammy Awards" will be presented on CBS Sunday, Feb. 8 (8:00 PM- 11:30 PM, ET/ PT). CBS has broadcasted the Grammy Awards since 1973. The awards are given out annually by the Academy, which is dedicated to improving the quality of life and cultural condition for music and its makers. This year's award ceremony will be produced in association with Cossette Productions. Pierre Cossette is the executive producer, Ken Ehrlich is the writer/producer and Walter Miller is the producer/director. John Cossette is the supervising producer and Tisha Fein is the coordinating producer. RATING: TVPG END |
