Fact Checking the Boston Globe - in Advance The blogosphere is abuzz that there might be an authoritative expert by the name of David E. Hailey, Jr., Ph.D. who might have proven the CBS documents are legit.
The Boston Globe is so excited they are getting ready to run with it.
I hope they do. Dr. Hailey is a liar, a fraud and a charlatan.
And I have the goods.
He attempted to copy Charles's work of reproducing the document on a typewriter, but there was a problem.
First download the pdf his analysis. Then go to page 9 and zoom in on the "th" at 400% you'll see... 
As they sing on Sesame Street, "One of these things is not like the other."
UPDATE I viewed the pdf on screen and it was obviously a forgery. Spoons says he could not see it so I rerasterized it as saved it as a jpg. I think it is clearer. If you doubt me, like everything in the blogosphere, follow the links. (/update)
Here is a hint for the good Professor-- If you are going to forge documents DON'T LEAVE THE EVIDENCE on your webserver.
And if you don't think that TH nailed him, feel free to download the PHOTOSHOP DOCUMENT he was working on when he created the forgery.
Not only did he forge the document but he let the work in progress in an open web folder.
And Professor, if you are reading this- and I know someone will mail it to you, I have downloaded your entire website as evidence and I saved screen caps of it, so don't bother delete it. I also had an interesting phone call with the head of your department. You might give him a call.
Did you think we were stupid?
Update OpenSecrets.org say the good professor gave John Kerry $250 (thanks Allah)
Update 2: We got word from Charles at LGF that the Globe is backing away from the guy. I wonder why.
Man I wished I typed Faster. More updates as I get them.

There is a concerted effort in the media to attack President Bush. Their bias is in plain view and it is astounding they still continue to desperately attempt to claim those documents are legit. Charges need to be filed. The media is going to far. Some conservative organization also needs to go after Kerry's military files that he refuses to release.

As a past-master of the obvious, I must ask about period after the number 2. such as 2
versus 2.

I opened the psd in Photoshop, but I don't understand how you can prove this is a forgery from that.
What does the pdf file prove?
He could just claim he scanned the document after he typed it, in order to put it on the internet.

The original "fake" has kerning. The forged "fake" doesn't. I suspect it's a concept Democrats cannot quite grasp.
