NFL schedule punts September's Emmys up a week
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Emmys are getting moved to a new date by National Football League games.
CBS executive Jack Sussman said the football broadcasts could have delayed the start of prime time and the Emmy telecast.
The network said the ceremony's original date was set before the NFL released its 2009 TV schedule.
Nominations for the 61st annual prime-time Emmys will be announced July 16.
