CBS News also runs a ''CBS Newsbreak'' daily during CBS daytime programming. CBS News ran a five-minute news bulletin, transmitted to all the affiliates at 11 :55 a.m. from 1958 to 1988. Currently it airs at 3:58 p.m. and lasts one minute after ''Guiding Light''.
''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.
''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.
Usually the CBS News Special Reports start with a graphic showing a numeric countdown, starting from 10, and then the news anchor will say the phrase "This is a CBS NEWS SPECIAL REPORT".
CBS Radio News
The branch of CBS News that produces newscasts and features to radio stations is called the ''CBS Radio Network''.
Public Eye
In 2005, CBS News created its own blogsite called ''Public Eye'' to act as a defacto ombudsman for CBS News and give greater transparency to the decisions being made. It occasionally invites other journalists and bloggers to give their own opinions on this site. CBS News is seen by some critics and observers as advocating liberal political positions. The channel denies allegations of bias in their news reporting.

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]
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.)
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".
