CBS Joins CNN: In a cost-saving experiment that may be tried elsewhere overseas, Cable News Network and CBS News will share a bureau and satellite equipment in Berlin. The test will start in mid-June and is “a limited experiment,” in which the two organizations will maintain separate news correspondents and producers. The Berlin bureau arrangement marks the second deal between CBS and cable tycoon Ted Turner, who unsuccessfully tried to buy CBS in 1986.
