ABC & NBC move Farrah cash-ins to tonight


We reported exclusively yesterday on the hypocritical tabloid war between ABC News and NBC News over the right to suck as many ratings points as possible out of Farrah Fawcett. With Farrah's sad death, they moved their plans forward:

NEW YORK (AP) — ABC and NBC are airing special tributes to Farrah Fawcett.

ABC's "20/20" will air a Barbara Walters Special, "Farrah's Love," Thursday at 10 p.m. Eastern. At the same hour, "Dateline NBC" will air "Farrah Fawcett: The Life and Death of an Angel." Friday at 9 p.m.,

NBC will rebroadcast "Farrah's Story," a two-hour documentary about Fawcett's battle with cancer that originally aired last month.

Of course, with the death of Michael Jackson trumping all, the network plans may change again.
