This piece is barely worth a comment but I'm sure to many who don't understand or haven't been around FR for some time, it might all seem "suspicious" but when you have thousands of people, thousands of independent eyeballs with all manner of hobbies and life experience looking at MSM claims, alleged documents and so forth... well, you'll forgive us if we're able to take a ball and run with it. I know, how "dare" we question the infallible MSM. What was I thinking!? We're supposed to reflexively defer to our self-appointed betters, the glorious MSM. Who cares of one of the Swifties is *A* *SINGLE* Freeper among thousands? This is really something of the same theory behind Open Source software development: thousands of eyeballs from all manners of experience are better at routing out flaws in a timely manner than a more limited resourced entity with a far greater reach and possible influence.

And, quite honestly, if there was "nothing" to Buckhead, et al.'s analysis there's no way this would've gotten legs. This is how checks-and-balances are *supposed* to work. Only a moron would think a claim such as that made by CBS would (and, in his world, SHOULD NOT) not be scrutinized.

The MSM and the entertainment cartel are pretty much interchangeable in their ignorance. They can't know for instance, why, when watching the microseries 4400, I literally went straight up when the main scientist chick said... around seattle... 47 degrees north longitude...
