Please see my post # 323. The Washington Post (I know, I know) reports that CBS called Col. Killian's superior, Gen. Hodges. CBS read the memos to Gen. Hodges, and, it is claimed, that Gen. Hodges said that the memos reflected Col. Killian's statements about Lt. Bush. CBS states that it spoke with associates of Col. Killian. The Post tried to contact Gen. Hodges, who would not return calls.
I don't know where these documents came from, but I'd feel better if Gen. Hodges and any other living associates of Col. Killian would come out and deny that those memos reflect Col. Killian's statements and state that CBS didn't contact them.
I'd really appreciate it if someone could convince me that I shouldn't worry about the Post and CBS statements.
Don't worry. Killian's personnel chief said he thought the documents were fake. And by CBS's own admission, Hodges never saw the documents; they were read to him over the phone. Not to mention Killian's wife and son saying they thought the documents were fake. Pretty devastating for CBS.
