It was the top story yesterday at 5, 6 and 11: Joe Torre rejected the Yankees' one-year, five-million-dollar contract to return to manage the team next year. And now, after 12 years, the Torre era comes to an end.
CBS 2 News will break in to take Torre's press conference live at 2 p.m., which will be the first time Torre is seen and heard publicly since the news broke late yesterday afternoon.

CBS 2 News Does Not Cover Spitzer's Inauguration on TV, As Was Originally Planned
They lucked out with a delay last night but lose out with one today...
CBS 2 had announced on the air over the weekend that CBS 2 News at Noon would be a full hour today to provide coverage of Eliot Spitzer's inauguration as governor of New York. However, due to today's heavy rains, the outdoor ceremony was delayed by an hour until 1 p.m. CBS 2 News at Noon with Chris Wragge (who will be headed down to DC later today) and Kristine Johnson went the usual length and the station filled the 12:30 - 1:00 p.m. slot with "Chevrolet's Tim McCarver Show."
WCBSTV.com is currently providing streaming coverage of the event while CBS Sports is covering the Gator Bowl.
Spitzer had a private swearing in ceremony just after midnight but the public oath of office was scheduled for today.
