CSI: MIAMI OFF THE AIR

WPRI-TV, a CBS affiliate in Providence, R.I., has refused to air an upcoming CSI: Miami episode about a nightclub fire. The station feels it's too similar to the real-life blaze that killed 99 people in a Warwick, R.I., club in February. An Eye network rep said they respect WPRI's decision, adding that Miami's fire storyline was conceived before the tragedy occurred.
