The authenticity of the documents has been thoroughly debunked, not only by pajama clad bloggers, but by experts consulted by numerous MSM outlets. There's not a shred of doubt any long -- they are blatant forgeries.
For Rather to continue the charade is lunacy. At some point -- soon -- CBS is going to have to shake Rather hard and tell him to get it right. My hunch is that Rather will exit stage left and leave others behind to clean up his mess.
Why should CBS manangement get off the hook. If Rather goes down, the CEO should go down as well for keeping Rather on too long. Frankly President Bush should own the network after he gets out of office for the slanderous lies they've put out.
You're so right. For Rather to continue this farce in the face of overWHELMing evidence is just unbelievable. I know this guy is obscenely biased, but good God in Heaven......just how stupid does he really think we are????????????
The suits at CBS must be total numbskulls to allow this to continue. It's just insanity.
Ideally, that would be great.
I just can't picture Rather going quietly.
He'll trot out the old routine of "My reputation has been sullied by digital brownshirts and reactionary cyber-activists intent on the policies of personal destruction of anyone opposed to them"...or something like that.
