ouch.. your post is inaccurate compared to the website -
"The show is scheduled to debut in 2017, so it will just miss the 2016 celebrations of the franchise's 50th anniversary. It will air with a premiere episode on CBS and then become available on CBS All Access, a US on-demand streaming-video platform that costs $5.99 per month. It will also be distributed through television and other platforms worldwide. (Disclosure: CNET is owned by CBS.)" - not just on demand, just that it will be available on their on-demand.
Producer Alex Kurtzman is known for his work on the rebooted Star Trek movies. - not director. JJ Abrams is still the director of Star Trek Into Darkness... not Kurtzman. Kurtzman was one of the writers though, yes.
