The documents ARE forged BUT CBS & Rather are going to dig in; claim the docs are authentic; refuse to turn them over to an independent third party; refuse to name the sources of the documents. In essence their reaction will seal their fate.

There's one interesting twist here. These are documents supposedly signed by a military officer. I believe it's a felony to impersonate an officer of the US Armed Forces. This isn't just dirty tricks, this is criminal activity. I could be wrong, but I don't think CBS can claim that the name of their source is privileged information in a criminal suit. Can any FReeper lawyers out there square me away on this?
