Since See BS is going to "redouble our efforts", how exactly do you think that is going to happen? This is a smokescreen for allowing their legal beagles to come up with a good defense for airing forged documents. They just admitted that they will concede after they "recheck" their unimpeachable sources. I don't think they should be let off the hook until they expose that "unimpeachable source"..

NPR wrapped up thursdays update with the statement "questions are being raised about the how the blogger raised questions so soon after the broadcast".

How long does it take for somebody to notice whether a document is in proportional (rather than monospace like a standard typewriter) font? Once that oddity raises an eyebrow, how long does it take to notice the superscripts?

BTW, a quote from Peter Gabriel (seems appropriate to Danny's situation right now):

Nothing fades like the future
Nothing clings like the past.

Hello? This is it people!!! 10000 posts for this...

I agree .... LOL, I'm really disappointed. But I loved the discovery of the mispelling in CBS's 'update' hah! (I certainly wouldn't have noticed it)

Milk and cookies?

Dan and the DNC and Kerry are going to put out a contract on FR. If we survive to the election, I think we should celebrate with something more bubbly...sparkling cider, perhaps.

And if you think this has been a load of crap week, just wait till October.

So far we have Laura Bush is a promiscuous dope dealer and George beat her, and there are 7 weeks to go.

Watching intently but all I see is his smugness acting as if nothing happend and hoping it will go away.

Just announced on the Chris Baker talk show:

Ken Charles, the Station Manager for 950KPRC in Houston (the largest talk station in Houston) just sent the CBS News VP all his nasty e-mails and told them that CBS will either fire Dan Rather by Monday and come completely clean on the matter or he will take CBS News off the air of his radio stations (he manages two of the largest in Houston).

He took Dan Rather's 4pm top of the hour brodcast off effective immediately and replaced it with Fox news.

He said he will find a way to cancel the CBS contract if they do not resolve this in a manner that retains their credibility as a news source.

Meanwhile , NBC's Fred Francis did a report much like ABC's Brian Ross last night. NBC found one of the experts ABC talked to and she repeated that she could not authenticate the docs and expresed her concerns to CBS producers, who IGNORED her and went on to find OTHER "EXPERTS" who would AGREE with them.

"Phrased that way, does that remind anybody of an expresident who had multiple definitions for a two letter word?"

He's been sounding A LOT like bill ever since Friday.... of course, Rather would view the comparison as a compliment. Bill has been flattered by Dan's imitation ... and giving phone call tips to Dan from his hospital room...
