Will the 2011 Emmys be live from coast-to-coast again?

Last year, for the first time in its history, the Primetime Emmy Awards were broadcast live all over the country including Alaska and Hawaii.

But the big question is...with the nominations already out today (7/14), will this year's Emmys on Fox be live from coast-to-coast again, or will it be back to live in the East Coast and tape delay in the West?

But remember when the seventh and deciding game of the 2001 World Series clashed against the twice-postponed Emmys? Fox, for some foolish reason, updated us on the night's winners, and that angered a lot of viewers on the West Coast (where the awards weren't aired for a couple more hours)!!

Like I said before, the big award shows (Primetime Emmys, Golden Globes, Grammys, Oscars) should be aired in all time zones so that these days, we won't have to deal with any Twitter/Facebook spoilers on who won.
 
In Alaska and Hawaii, the Emmys were on tape delay (to avoid running opposite Sunday Night Football), though thanks to Twitter, we followed it.
