bump back good find.
Buckhead incident mentioned today here:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2504598/posts
“Helen Thomas simply longs for the days when reporters and pundits could report spin, lies and opinion as fact and were never held accountable outside of page A-16 retractions.
“The new media’s finest moment came when in 2004 CBS’s Dan Rather attempted to influence a national election (much like his predecessor Walter Cronkite did with the Vietnam War after the Tet Offensive), but unlike then, now there is a new media filled with grassroots activists who were going to hold the old media accountable and one of those activists on the Conservative Site Free-Republic under the handle “Buckhead,” was able to expose Rather’s “official documents” concerning Bush’s service in the Texas Air National Guard as forgeries. Rather eventually lost his job as a result.
Bump for old glory days.
When are ya gonna buy me Chinese?????!????
bi-annual bump to a historic FR post, Post 47
On the very day John Kerry’s mumbling about running for pres again in 2016... this appears:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3200698/posts?q=1&;page=41
An attempt at historic revisionism- the libs are making a movie about Mr Fake but Accurate’s career crash.
Talking about making this Dan Rather incident a movie. Year 2014. Memory bump to see if they include one of the most important discoveries as a fact in the movie.
Wow. 10 years has flown by.
I just showed the famous post #47 to my 14 yr. son.
Try as they may - they just can’t rewrite history on this one.
I hope the past decade has been kind to you.
First time I had seen the famous post.
Cool to know that it took down a lying dirtbag. Too bad there are thousands more just like him.
Hope you are doing well.
Bump to re-awaken the thread since the new movie “Truth” is self-contradictory and a misnomer.

Lets recap Phils thread again:
Phil Dragoo has provided us with the incredible link below that will show us how the forgery was done.
Go to the link and just sit back and watch the forgery recreated in about one minute. If freepers like this, please send it to your email lists. Then next week send it to advertisers of this POS 60 Minutes of Forgery and Lies. Then ask them if they really want to be associated with forgers and liars trying to illegally impact a presidential election.

Buckhead lives!
Thanks Phil!
Your explanation/demo of the fraud enabled us to fully understand what the lying bastards at CBS tried to do to GW.
Buckhead caught the fraud and alerted us.
You showed us what had been done.
Thanks for that dramatic replay.
Glad for the replay! Loved the interview and the accurate description of Bill Burkett.
2016 brings us to President-Elect Trump and more fake news from the left... time to once again acknowledge the infamous Buckhead Post #47 that caught Dan Rather’s fake news.
Thank you Buckhead!
I read the famous Bulkhead thread as it happened. I remember thinking after reading it that his post has the ring of truth to it. The next day at work when the Bush story ran I mentioned the fake document which was then mentioned in the Broadcast. They looked at me and wondered how I knew that. Mention it now because CBS has been caught in another lie.A picture of a baby in Ukraine claimed as an American victim of the Corona Virus. CBS has learned Nothing!
