I blame The New Yorker.
CBS had a scoop, but management did agree to hold the story and didn't broadcast it for two weeks. Then, The New Yorker decided to go to press with Seymour Hersh's article and CBS decided to go public in order to preserve its primary position in the story.
Ugly, yes, but that's the media business.
Herschberg is at the New Yorker and really is a smarter than all of you liberal loon.
A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within.
