Audio from a President
Obama speech delivered
in the wake of Hurricane
Sandy had been used in
an episode of CBS ‘s
Under The Dome but has since been cut, the
network confirms. “The audio of the President in
the final scene will change,” said CBS in an
official statement. “The scene cleared broadcast
standards, but both Amblin TV and CBS had
concerns about using actual audio in this specific
fictional context.” The Stephen King adaptation
premiering June 24 follows the residents of a
small town that becomes isolated from the
outside world by an invisible barrier. The Obama
clip had been briefly integrated into fictional
news reports on the events within the show at
the end of the episode. The version sent to critics
for review two weeks ago was not final. CBS and
Amblin Entertainment opted to edit out the audio
on Thursday.
