LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - CBS is considering canceling or postponing its upcoming mini-series "The Reagans" under mounting Republican criticism

just to appease GOP critics.

Ten,

Don't forget, you're reading a Reuters account which is liberally biased. When they talk about "mounting Republican criticism", they're trying to subliminally convince readers that the GOP is somehow pressuring CBS.

The reality is that CBS is coming to the understanding that (a) Reagan was, and still is, extremely popular, (b) even if he was NOT popular, their choice of timing is totally inappropriate, and (c) this mistake could cost CBS dearly.
