The latest from cbs about cbs, complete with their rehashing of the "fortunate son" angle.

Instead of eye for CBS logo, how about a cat scatching around in a litter box after doing its business?

So, let me get this straight: CBS is reporting on what other media sources are reporting about them?

How about just telling us what the %^& is going on???? Is that so hard????

Just think what sort of story CBS would do on another company or politician that acted like CBS has in the last few weeks.

I have trouble with the veracity of this story, considering the source, CBS.

According to The Washington Post, the network plans to say it was misled about the authenticity of the documents. The New York Times reports that CBS News officials met Sunday evening with anchor Dan Rather, the reporter of the contested story, to discuss the network's next steps.

Let me get this straight--CBS News is using the Washington Post and the New York Times as a SOURCE ABOUT ITSELF!???? ROFLMPO!!!!!!! (Rolling on Floor Laughing my Pajamas off!)

How much you wanna bet they will still be saying - "but the crux of the matter is that there are still unanswered questions about the President's National Guard service. Mr. President, answer these questions."

"How much you wanna bet they will still be saying - "but the crux of the matter is that there are still unanswered questions about the President's National Guard service. Mr. President, answer these questions."

You're absolutely right. I think that's what this article, at least, is saying. Fits right into the NYT hit piece last night about 1972 and Lt Bush. CBS and NYT are in it together.

four memoranda attributed to one of Mr. Bush's Guard commanders, Lt. Col. Jerry Killian

There were SIX memos and CBS has admitted that in their longer missive to their affiliates (longer than the statement inssued to the general public).

They admit they chose to use only 4 of the 6. USA Today, who received the 6 memos independently, did post all 6 at their website.

CBS continues dealing with this in a deceitful manner---as they have every step of the way.

They will hire BAGHDAD BOB to announce the memos were found to be true and HE will stake his reputation on that fact.

The coverup begins. Keep your eye on the ball children, the real source was the DNC. The entire MSM and entire liberal world will circle the wagons to coverup that trail.

Their credibility would tank but their ratings would skyrocket. I can see it now. "CBS News Comedy Hour featuring Bagdad Bob".
