Most of the people in the media who aren't biased are lazy. It wouldn't take Wright but about an hour to bring himself up to speed on this case.
The media, as a whole, tends to focus in on one point of a story and present it as if it were the entire story. It's frustrating.
What they should have focused on is Staudt's retirement, the deadline that makes one memo ridiculous, Matley only being a handwriting guy, the widow and the son, Barnes' daughter, the fact that CBS only started off with photocopies, the fact that
lots of experts think they are forged, the fact that Killian didn't keep private files, the fact that Dan raised money for Texas Democrats in a Barnes run County. More on Barnes ties to Kerry.
More on who provided CBS with the documents and why they aren't saying how they got them.
I mean there are so many storylines that lead to only one place-- Mapes and Rather spending more time with their families.
