What does CBS Stand for?

Doya…I don’t know if I ever even KNEW what it stood for. Anyone able to lend a hand? I tried http://www.cbs.com , but that’s nothing but an online store for Survivor II.

Any help is appreciated! It’ll stop me from biting my lips in frustration!

Columbia Broadcast System, I believe.

Thank you both!

Darn it, SaintZero, you beat me by less than a minute!

Yes, you are correct, BTW. (I graduated from college with a degree in television/radio production).

Columbia Broadcast System.

You see, back in the '50’s, the future Columbian drug lords knew they would need a way to signal their Cessna pilots to tell them when the DEA agents were out to lunch. So they developed a reflecting mirror outfitted in a tube and, through kickbacks and influence peddling, they were able to get one of these reflecters installed into each and every home in America.

If you want straight answers, GQ is the place to go.

But I figured this question was so mundane someone would point out it would belong in MPSIMS. Sometimes, you just can’t win!

=0) I enjoyed the inventive answer you came up with. Those darn drug Czars!

I always refer to CBS as “the self-explanatory network.” They probably wouldn’t appreciate this, however. :slight_smile:

Two years of a Mass Communications Major here. :slight_smile: College got too expensive to finish at the time.

Crummy Broadcast System.

I always thought it meant “Can’t Broadcast Sports.” :slight_smile:

I hope you’re putting your MassComm education to better use than I’m putting mine. I became a computer programmer…go figure…

Well… I’m the At-home Dad. So no, I’m not getting too much use out of that Broadcasting experience. :slight_smile:

I always though it stood for Constantly Broadcasting Shit.

Continually Boring Shows?

Couldn’t Beat Seinfeld?
