Some People Don't Want to Save Private RyanCBS Angers CSI:NY Viewers: East coast viewers to the freshman hit "CSI:NY" flooded CBS with angry calls after the network news division interrupted the program to announce the death of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Unfortunately for "CSI:NY" fans, they did it just as this week's murder mystery was about to be solved. CBS has since apologized. They blamed an "overly aggressive" news producer. (Apparently almost anyone at CBS has the authority to break into regular programming.) In an effort to appease angry fans, CBS will rebroadcast the entire episode of "CSI:NY," including the ending, Friday evening, Nov. 12, at 10 p.m. EST.
