fter days of expressing confidence about the documents used in a "60 Minutes'' report that raised new questions about President Bush's National Guard service, CBS News officials have grave doubts about the authenticity of the material, network officials said last night.
The officials, who asked not to be identified, said CBS News would most likely make an announcement as early as today that it had been deceived about the documents' origins. CBS News has already begun intensive reporting on where they came from, and people at the network said it was now possible that officials would open an internal inquiry into how it moved forward with the report. Officials say they are now beginning to believe the report was too flawed to have gone on the air.

NYT: "After days of expressing confidence..."
Hasn't it been two weeks?
"We Were Deceived"? nope, "We Deceived".
"You're traveling through another dimension,
a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind;
a journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are
that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead-
- your next stop . . .
The Twilight Zone!"
They've been duped and Dan Rather is their honey-voiced DUPEthroat.
It has all the sincerity of Clinton's "I'm sorry [that I got caught]." statements.
Doubtful. Rather will continue to focus on the content rather than the fraud.
Prediction-- Soon we will hear "mistakes were made."
PS Why did Dan only interview Burkett after the ruckus?
PPSS - Now can we talk about Danron's "Rush to War"?
Well, Dan said he wanted to break this story.
Karl Rove snuck 'em into a trash can at Texas National Guard HQ in 1997.
Amazing that a bunch of low intellects are being paid some big bucks!!
Our Buckhead did it faster - for free - and with more dignity.
Where was CBS's sense of getting it right? Obviously, lost out to their hatred of Bush.
"CBS News has already begun intensive reporting on where they came from, and people at the network said it was now possible that officials would open an internal inquiry into how it moved forward with the report."
Translates into: CBS is going to sacrifice a low level employee to make this go away.
If this doesn't P you O more about CBS and their obvious agenda, nothing will. All the document "experts" they had review the docs told CBS there were PROMBLEMS with them. Especially that woman from Raleigh, NC reiterated the conspicuous details and CBS still ignored her and probably told her to go and pound sand. (She wouldn't say what they REALLY told her, on her interview with O'Reilly.)
Don't let CBS get away with this!! Rather is OVER!
That's a start.
Now tell us who deceived you, and whose campaign they are linked to!
