The Corporation for Public Broadcasting's Inspector General, Kenneth Konz, is eyeing a November 1 release for his report on the various allegations against Board Chairman Ken Tomlinson. Yesterday, Konz was on the Hill briefing legislators about his findings. Bloomberg reported Tuesday that Konz had concluded that Tomlinson "may have violated internal rules" in hiring a consultant without the board's knowledge to gauge the bias in noncommercial programming, including Bill Moyers' Now program, but Konz took issue with the story.
