CBS execs 'asked to resign' still work at CBS

Remember those CBS executives that were asked to resign following the network's Memogate report? They haven't quit:

The three CBS News executives asked to resign for their roles in the network's discredited story about President Bush's National Guard service had not done so by Wednesday, more than a week later. It was unclear whether their lack of action foreshadows a legal battle between CBS and Josh Howard, executive producer of "60 Minutes Wednesday"; his top deputy, Mary Murphy; and CBS senior vice president Betsy West. "There are discussions going on with them," CBS chairman Leslie Moonves said.

I'm hoping for a massive internal battle royale that spills into the courts. And I think it's coming.
