The majority of the slideshows can be found on every CBS O&O station, Case in point, the "hot athlete"slideshow among others can be found at the WCBS website. Just go to the rest of the CBS O&O sites and you'll see them. It is basically a way for the stations to have "content" that is basically filler, but content none the less.

For you laymen-

O&O: A TV station that is "Owned & Operated" by the network.
