CBS broadcasts altered views of Boston's Fourth of July fireworks - The Boston Globe

I watched briefly, but long enough to see some Boston landmarks superimposed
over the fireworks show, including Fenway Park, Quincy Market and a very
fake-looking image of the State House.   It made me think, "Cheese-y."

I watched the CBS hour....and wondered why I was listening to recorded "pop"

(not "pops") music while the fireworks were going off...and not the 
orchestra.  The Boston pops only seemed to play for the 1812 and the 
'sing-a-long'.

Once they went to the fireworks display, they went to a some recorded 
tracks.

>>> Throw in Mugar refusing to show the lyrics of the sing-a-long on screen.

You mean the home screens?  The lyrics were on the jumbotrons for the people

at the shell, right?
