CBS and Fox punt to NFL

Most CBS and Fox stations infuriated viewers yesterday by cutting away to the opening Sunday NFL match-ups — in the middle of the 9/11 memorial coverage.

WCBS in New York stayed with 9/11 coverage until the last name was read.

The networks switched from the reading of the victims’ names at Ground Zero at around 1 p.m. to go to any one of eight games — none featuring New York teams — around the country.

The remainder of the 9/11 services could still be seen on about a dozen other channels.
