NFL schedule Sack's the Emmy's


LOS ANGELES, June 1 (UPI) -- CBS said Monday its U.S. telecast of the 61st Primetime Emmy Awards has been rescheduled for Sept. 13, one week earlier than the previously announced date.

The original date for the presentation honoring the best in U.S. prime time television for 2008-09 was set prior to the NFL releasing its 2009 television schedule.

"The new date moves the Emmys away from a weekend where CBS has an NFL doubleheader, which can delay the start of primetime on Sunday," Jack Sussman, executive vice president of specials, music and live events at CBS, said in a statement. "This is better for the live event, the broadcast and our audience at home."
