CBS (an initialism of the network's former name, the Columbia Broadcasting System) is an American commercial broadcast television network that is the flagship properties of CBS Corporation. The company is headquartered at the CBS Building in New York City with major production facilities and operations in New York City (at the CBS Broadcast Center) and Los Angeles (at CBS Television City and the CBS Studio Center).
CBS is sometimes referred to as the "Eye Network", in reference to the company's iconic logo, in use since 1951. It has also been called the "Tiffany Network", alluding to the perceived high quality of CBS programming during the tenure of its founder William S. Paley. It can also refer to some of CBS's first demonstrations of color television, which were held in a former Tiffany & Co. building in New York City in 1950.
The network has its origins in United Independent Broadcasters Inc., a collection of 16 radio stations that was purchased by Paley in 1928 and renamed the Columbia Broadcasting System. Under Paley's guidance, CBS would first become one of the largest radio networks in the United States, and eventually one of the Big Three American broadcast television networks. In 1974, CBS dropped its former full name and became known simply as CBS, Inc. The Westinghouse Electric Corporation acquired the network in 1995, renamed its corporate entity to the current CBS Broadcasting, Inc. in 1997, and eventually adopted the name of the company it had acquired to become CBS Corporation. In 2000, CBS came under the control of Viacom, which was formed as a spin-off of CBS in 1971. In late 2005, Viacom split itself into two separate companies, and re-established CBS Corporation – through the spin-off of its broadcast television, radio and select cable television and non-broadcasting assets – with the CBS television network at its core. CBS Corporation is controlled by Sumner Redstone through National Amusements, which also controls the current Viacom.
CBS Studios International (formerly CBS Paramount International Television) is a multinational television production/distribution arm of CBS Television Studios and owned by CBS Corporation that was formed in 2004 by Viacom as CBS Paramount International Television, a result of a merger between two television companies, CBS Broadcast International and Paramount International Television. Since September 26, 2006, the company is part of the CBS Television Distribution Group. In May 2009, CBS Paramount International Television was renamed to CBS Studios International.
The company distributes the CBS Studios library as well as the Rysher Entertainment library (owned domestically by 2929 Entertainment), the King World Productions library, the DreamWorks Animation library, and certain HBO shows internationally. In addition it also has part ownership of Australian subscription channels TV1 and SF Channel.
From 2006-2009 as CBS Paramount International Television, the company distributed the film libraries from Paramount Pictures and Republic Pictures.

CBS 특별기획 다큐멘터리 '한국 기독교 선교의 개척자,이수정' 한국 기독교 역사, 한국 선교 역사, 선교의 역사 불과 130년 전만 해도 복음에 대해 굳게 빗장을 닫아 건 은둔의 나라, 조선! 이 땅이 지금의 세계 2위의 선교대국이 되기까지는 청춘과 생명을 아낌없이 이 땅에 바쳐 이름도 빛도 없이 산화해간 선교사들이 있었다. "자발적으로 먼저 선교사를 요청한 나라, 코리아" 그런데 선교사들이, 베일에 싸인 은둔의 나라 조선을 향해 복음을 들고 오기까지, 그들을 간절히 요청한 조선인이 있었으니, 바로 이수정(1843~?)이란 인물이다. 이수정은 미국에 선교사를 요청하고 일본에서 최초의 한글성경 '마가복음언해'를 펴내 한반도 선교의 기틀을 마련했다. CBS는 한국 선교 130주년을 맞아 조선 선교를 위해 헌신했던 이수정의 삶과 신앙을 다룬 특별기획 다큐 '한국기독교 선교의 개척자, 이수정'(연출 홍재표PD)을 제작, 방송한다. CBS는 구 한말 조선의 복음화에 결정적 역할을 한 이수정을 통해 이 땅에 전해졌던 복음의 순수한 열정과 생명력, 피동적이 아닌 자발적이고 능동적으로 복음이 전해진 한국기독교의 역사를 재조명한다. '예수 그리스도의 종, 나 이수정은 미국의 형제, 자매들에게 주님의 이름으로 문안드립니다. 우리의 조국에서 수많은 백성들이 아직 참 하나님의 길을 모르고 있으며, 이방인으로 살고 있습니다.' - '이수정'이 미국에 보낸 선교사 요청 서신 중- 1883년 요코하마에서 미국으로 전송된 이 편지는, 당시 미국 교계와 선교사 사회에 큰 파장을 일으켰다. 이...
