CSI: NY is not a history program
by Bob Sassone, posted Aug 3rd 2007 3:00PM
That's the finding of the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission, ruling against the producers of CSI: NY who claimed that the show could be considered "a critically-acclaimed look at forensic policing in post-9/11 New York City."
The show has been airing on Canada's History Television channel and the commission says that the producers (Alliance Atlantis) have to take it off the air by January 1 (the producers have to take it off the air? Can't the channel just not show it?)
In other news, Pussycat Dolls Presents is not educational television, and Weeds is not a health and exercise show.
