NIGHTLINE to do show on forgeries.
Instapundit ^ | 09/09/04 | Glenn Reynolds

Posted on 09/09/2004 7:12:08 PM PDT by Pikamax

ANOTHER UPDATE: A media contact emails: "ABC'S NIGHTLINE DOING THE forgeries tonight, and their experts say most likely forgeries. CBS had serious meetings this evening over this."

I'll bet they did. . . .

It took FR members LESS THEN 20 minutes to raise valid questions about these "documents" that the "journalists" had for weeks.

And what's even more impressive is that TankerKC raised doubts on the authenticity of the documents just seeing the video of them shown on 60 Minutes II. This was before CBS posted it on their website. Good eyes!

So let us get this straight. The only way Night line does a semi-pro Bush story is to nail the competition. Well how can we setup another one??

The beauty of it is we don't need to; A-BS's competition is stuid enough to pull their BS all by themselves.

I thought "peachment" was what a University of Georgia diploma was printed on.

Shillery is going to throw herself in front of a steamroller? I highly doubt it.

Holy Cow!

Houston ABC 13 just killed this story. They had 2 local experts who said FAKE, no question. Then they interviewed Killian's son at his house. He said FAKE, no question.

Then they went to the chairman of the Harris Co. Democratic Party. He said BUSH should call for an investigation to get to the bottom of the memo's. That's right - Bush should call for an investigation.

It was great.

Time will tell. It depends on whether she thinks she can win reelection to the Senate in 2006 and derail Obama in 2008(IMHO, the only RAT that could beat her in a primary). If she's not confident in either, she'll jump in this year, especially since the Pubbies may well counter a 2008 Hitlery run with Condi Rice (not only negating the woman thing, but potentially shaking loose the black vote from the RATs).

Killian's widow said he did not type, and the wording in the "memos" does not sound like him . . .

Well, there you have it. It's a dirty trick by Bush Campaign. We can't win.

Which leads to only two possible conclusions. Either they're tree-stump dumb. Or they're LIARS. Gee, I wonder which it is...

Koppel suggests that the Kerry campaign would have been happy last evening that the story came about. Koppel strongly hinted it may have a Kerry supporter dropped the documents on CBS.

NL is giving all the negatives anyway.

[Gonna be difficult for Ted to diss CBS and GWB in the same Niteline.]

So, Nightline has moved on....now on what Cheney said the other day.

Is that all they are going to say about the questionable memos????

That's right - Bush should call for an investigation.

Oh, Absolutely - The President will send Mr. Rove over to retrieve all evidence CBS and the DNC have regarding Bush's ANG service.

I'm sure it will be turned over promptly and cheerfully.

Sounds like they are making excuses for CBS to me. Claiming that both sides are going negative.

He said he would proably have aired the piece too. What a joke.

It's disgusting and not worth listening to rest of the show.

Nightline is distorting VP Cheney's remarks. This is an absurdity. They have played the clip twice and both times have clipped the final clause where he makes his point.

One down, two to go!

Do not ascribe to malice that which can more readily be explained by stupidity.

Never trust the MSM to be fair and balanced. In particular, never, ever trust Ted Koppel or Chris Bury (Nightline) to be anything but deceitful.

I made the same assertion earlier.

Rather won't rat out anyone from the Kerry campaign and even if he does, they'll trot out an "over-zealous" intern to be the fall guy.

You are correct.
