CBS on move, part II.(to move some production facilities)

Broadcasting & Cable, August, 1998

While no final decision has been made to move, company sources say it appears likely that CBS will be moving its news, sports and WCBS-TV production facilities out of The Broadcast Center on West 57th Street in New York and into more up-to-date, digital-friendly digs. One report had it last week that the CBS Sports production units would move to Universal Studio facilities in Orlando, Fla., where production costs generally are cheaper than in New York or Los Angeles.

A company spokesperson declined to comment on specific rumors concerning the move, but did confirm that the network continues to look "at a number of options on where to house its production facilities, including remaining here," at New York's Broadcast Center.
