BBC News and WNET Are Together Again

Nearly two years after a nasty split, “BBC World News” and WNET.org have made up. The weeknight newscast will return on Monday to WNET, Channel 13 in New York, where it will air at 5:30 p.m., and to its sister station, WLIW, Channel 21, which will broadcast it at 11 p.m. WNET.org, the parent company of the two public stations, announced in April 2008 that it planned to drop the BBC newscast, which WLIW also distributed to public stations nationwide, in favor of an in-house-produced international news program called “Worldfocus.” At the time Neal Shapiro, the president and chief executive of WNET.org, criticized the BBC program for not presenting enough context for American viewers. But “Worldfocus,” which had its debut in October 2008, was unable to find enough financing to keep going, despite strong viewer support. A WNET spokeswoman, Kellie Specter, said that Mr. Shapiro, who was not available for comment, still firmly believes in the “Worldfocus” goal to make foreign news less foreign to the audience, but with that show being canceled, “we are still committed to international news and analysis and that’s the reason he brought ‘BBC World News’ back.”

Fox News said on Wednesday that it was dropping an interview with LL Cool J, right, the rapper and “NCIS: Los Angeles” star, from Thursday’s debut episode of “Real American Stories,” a program hosted by Sarah Palin. LL Cool J, whose real name is James Todd Smith, wrote Tuesday on his Twitter account that Fox News had “lifted an old interview I gave in 2008 to someone else” and was “misrepresenting to the public” in its promotion of the show. Press representatives for LL Cool J said Fox News was repurposing an old interview without his permission. Fox News said that it conducted an interview with LL Cool J about 18 months ago for a program called “Real American Stories,” and that it did not need his permission to use the interview on the new program. In a statement Fox News said, “As it appears that Mr. Smith does not want to be associated with a program that could serve as an inspiration to others, we are cutting his interview from the special and wish him the best with his fledgling acting career.” In addition to his “NCIS” role, LL Cool J has starred in the films “Any Given Sunday” and “Deep Blue Sea” and on the television series “In the House.”
