When you need something bad to report, play a re-run from last year if you have to. CBS, apparently not satisfied that 'The Airport Road' security has improved since last year, and, not to take away from the current Israeli / Hezbollah fight, CBS's weekly news magazine '60 Minutes' replays (on July 23, 2006) a show they originally aired Nov. 6, 2005.
A lot of milestones in the war in Iraq have happened since the program aired for the first time. Why would CBS waste a third of their air-time on a re-run to pass as news in Iraq? If you missed the brief mention of the original air date at the very beginning of the segment, that's the only time it was mentioned, you wouldn't know that what you were watching was from last year. It's pathetic, but as Walter said, 'that's the way it is.'
