“The report by the CBS Corp.-owned television show will focus on product sourcing and a lawsuit brought against the company, Lynch said on a conference call to discuss fourth-quarter results. The lawsuit Lynch mentioned was filed in California and alleges the company violated safety laws with its use of formaldehyde, according to a regulatory filing.
“Lynch said that he didn’t know when the episode would air, but that it may be this weekend. Kevin Tedesco, a spokesman for CBS, said the company doesn’t comment on stories in the works, and the lineup for the Sunday ’60 Minutes’ show typically gets released on Thursday.”
