CBS Newspath is CBS News' satellite news gathering service (similar to CNN Newsource). Newspath provides national hard news, sports highlights, regional spot news, features and live coverage of major breaking news events for affiliate stations to use in their local news broadcasts. Newspath has a team of reporters dedicated to reporting for affiliates and offers several different national or international stories fronted by reporters on a daily basis. Newspath also relies heavily on local affiliates sharing content. Stations will often contribute locally-obtained footage that may be of national interest. CNN Newsource is an affiliation video-relay service from CNN. The service is subscription based, and provides CNN content to television stations affiliated with CNN, including terrestrial stations and international stations. ...

Newspath is a part of the Network News Service, a collaborative effort between the affiliate news services of ABC, CBS and FOX. This means that, for example, the FOX affiliate could uplink footage to their affiliate network, which would then be picked up by NNS, and be available to any ABC, CBS or FOX affiliate outside of the market that the footage originated in. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) operates television and radio networks in the United States and is also shown on basic cable in Canada. ... This article is about the broadcast network. ...

History

In a speech in 1971, Vice-President Spiro Agnew accused CBS News of disseminating "deceptive, self-serving propaganda". He quoted from reports by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Special Subcommittee on Investigations of the House Commerce Committee. These reports mentioned a CBS documentary called "Project Nassau",an effort to depose the Francois Duvalier regime in Haiti. "The House Subcommittee found that CBS had, in effect, financially subsidized a planned 1966 invasion of Haiti in order to make a documentary on the event." ^[1] Spiro Theodore Agnew (November 9, 1918 – September 17, 1996) was the thirty-ninth Vice President of the United States serving under President Richard M. Nixon, and the fifty-fifth Governor of Maryland. ... François Duvalier known as Papa Doc (possibly April 14, 1907 - April 21, 1971) was the President of Haiti from 1957 and later dictator from 1964 until his death. ...

In his deposition, Tom Dunkin, journalist for the Atlanta Journal, said that producer Jay McMullen of CBS told him in November, 1966 that he had "spent a lot of time and money on this project and had nothing to show for it". (In January of 1967 the project ended with the arrest of 75 participants.) The Atlanta Journal-Constitution is the only major daily newspaper of Atlanta and metro Atlanta. ...

Ironically, in a September 1, 2004 CBS news commentary, titled "Vice President Dick Agnew", CBS editorial director Dick Meyer said that Vice President Cheney "drew from a different tradition typified by Spiro Agnew" in a tradition that "uses the hired help to do the political dirty work".
