Give Kevin credit for following up and apologizing.
I'm sure we'll be seeing Koppel apologize on Nightline any day now.

Back in Tran Thoi, villager Nguyen Van Khoai said that about six months ago he was visited by an American who described himself as a Swift boat veteran and told him another American from the Swift boats was running for president of the United States.I want to see the travel records for whoever did the advance work for Koppel. THAT'S probably who this guy talked to.
We aren't expected to believe that Ted went in there and did his own dirty work are we?

So the Kerry campaign probably set the whole story up with phony witnesses and then used a third party to feed the story to Ted Koppel who was just as willing to use it without authenticating the facts anymore than Dan Rather was."You were had, Ted"

Who was the "independent producer" who speaks fluent VN and has spent 25 years in and out of VN who was ABC's "fixer" on the story?
I think backtrailing that commie stooge will blow the story wide open.
