Who was the very first FReeper to break with the forgery. Best I can tell at this time it was Howlin.I think it was Howlin.
Kudos!

I just finished sending an email to 60 Min II and then checked back here before going to bed...surprise, surprise.
A little history:
Rather "confirmed" on air that Reagan was dead after he was shot by Hinkley.
Rather "confirmed" on air that Iraq had used chemical weapons against Israel during the first Gulf War.
This would make the perfect trifecta.
Choke yourself Dan.

"There are a few, but very few...they're scared to death to discuss the reality and magnitude of it...i.e., Al Gore invented the Internet, John Kerry invented TOAST...!"
And let me be the first to send an email to Algore THANKING him for "inventing" the Internet which has made the NEW media possible. I'm sure he'll be glad to know he is good for something these days...

Once more the rabidly anti-Bush press has stepped into the proverbial pile of dog !$#%.
As one who typed many reports, INTSUMS, documents, and fitness reports in the miltary during the years in question, I can categorically state that the ONLY font we ever used was Courier - unless we typed messages, which used a special OCR font.
That Rather and CBS would take shortcuts with basic journalistic fact checking to meet some DNC-specified bash-Bush timeline to counter our President's rise in the polls is a searing indictment on the entire profession.
Out with the OLD media - in with the NEW!

From what I can tell right now, CBS's "verification" process consisted solely of calling up people and asking them if the wording of the docs sounded authentic. This is the behavior of people who already know 'the truth' and are merely looking for facts to back it up with. I don't know exactly what the word for that is, but it ain't 'journalism'.

Welcome to FreeRepublic :
There's been many thousand threads posted, and several phrases have become "cult classics" for inane irrelevance: I'm not going to go in the details of each, but you;ll begin to recognize a few:
You can never whine about something without somebody asking for some "Cheesy excuse" ...
You can't be series of a topic without somebody saying that it is a hugh event.
And Mooses have a bad habit of biting your Norwegian sister.
(There are several others...The ones responsible for canning this description have been canned ...)

Ok, how this one,
"This race is tighter than the right shoelace on a sneaker worn by a Dallas Cowboy line backer who was just arrested after his third incidental wife beating while snorting cocaine during the half time of the local Lyndon Banes Johnson High School football game when the concession stand has run out of root beer and Moon Pies on a hot, dusty Wacco Friday night under the lights."
How was that?

Did you see the L.A. Slimes yesterday? They were in full Ruin Bush mode. Out of the 8 stories on the front page, 7 were meant to harm Bush.
The Dan Rather forged docs story will be on page A41, column 3, next to the sale at J.C. Penney.
