If the reporter is no older than 5 he probably wouldn't -- unless he was a bright 5 year-old.
"Mr. Rather and others at the network are said to still believe that the sentiment in the memos accurately reflected Mr. Killian's feelings, but that the documents' authenticity is now in grave doubt."
"Does this reporter have any idea how ridiculous this sounds?"
Wasn't there a quote near the beginning where they said:
"We are confident that the memos represent the true feeling of the author, at the time they were written." ?
All that mattered was the serousness of the charge, not the validity of the charge itself...Just like they did to his dad concerning Iran-Contra...all that mattered was the seriousness of the charges
e "sentiment in the memos accurately reflected Mr. Killian's feelings, but that the documents' authenticity is now in grave doubt."
"Does this reporter have any idea how ridiculous this sounds?"
What they talked to him beyond the grave? Even though his wife said he liked Bush, the exact opposite of what those memos show?
