CBS/Paramount/Desilu/Viacom/Westwood One/Infinity/Columbia Broadcasting System/Dumont/UBS was one of Rupert Murdoch's most successful weekend takeover deals due to losing WJZ-TV losing it's ABC affiliation. In addition to giving Gene Roddenberry a reasonably successful TV show, CBSPDVWOICBSDUBS ran a helpful crawl along the bottom of the screen at all times, alerting viewers to impending terror attacks and reminding them of the one man who could stop the evildoers before they struck again.
CBSPDVWOICBSDUBS eventually absorbed competitors MSNBCNBCMT and ComFoodHDSciOpryNet to form CBSMSNBCCRKOPBRMEASAP.
