To: TheGeezer
This is really making me mad! A huge (hugh) news organization can't prove the documents are fake--when it has been verified by numerous experts that they are--if CBS thinks this will calm the waters they are terribly mistaken--but then they are terribly mistaken most of the time aren't they. What a bunch of gutless wimps or evil wonders...they are totally, totally disgusting.
To: Howlin
They could NEVER authenticate the docs. They only ever had copies.
To: Hyacinthus Forma
That was the most pathetic response for engaging in criminal behaviour I have ever witnessed. The cover-up continues!!!!! I am more enraged now than ever over this! Time for all of us to Blitz CBS again. Where is the apology Dan? You KNEW these were forgeries!Wow! What a model of journalistic exemplication! To see a corporate media supposedly devoted to bringing us the "inside scoop" dragging out it's inside scoop in agonizingly slow docudrama progression. It's the new "reality TV!" It's the big media, having a 100% monopoly on this inside scoop, acting like it wants to engage in a month-long casual foreplay in reporting the news with the public-at-large.
To: mudblood
That's precisely what he should have said. They are still in cover-up mode.
Things like this is why I stopped watching MSM many years ago.
Gunga dan and SeeBS are still in denial, trying to make the sheeple feel sorry for them.
FORGERIES! Apology to PRESIDENT BUSH needs to be forthcoming!!!

I just love that "skypilot" quote!
It's one thing to be wrong, but its another to be arrogantly dismissive of the opposition's intelligence, while you are demonstrably and conclusively wrong.
Nothing like watching somebody fall on their ass while doing the "superior dance".

It would appear you're reading a different memo from Dan Rather then the statement cbs released.
>>>>In order for him to eat crow, there has to be at least a modicum of humility--and I don't see it in that statement. Not even a hint of an apology. Infuriating.
"We made a mistake in judgment, and for that I am sorry."
Dan Rather
Rather may not have gone far enough for you, but he did apologize.

(Dan Rather is a journalist like Michael Moore is a pole vaulter.)
CBS News executives (shown above) return to the Commissary for a hearty lunch of funnel cakes after making Dan Rather come to his senses. Insiders report that Mr. Rather was repeatedly subjected to dousings of buckets-full of ice-cold confetti until he signed the statement.

WE RECKLESSLY PROMOTED FORGED DOCUMENTS AND DECEIVED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN A RABID ATTEMPT TO UNDEDMINE A WARTIME PRESIDENT AND INFLUENCE A FEDERAL ELECTION. sorry.
Exactly. You are exactly correct. They were trying to help Kerry. All these media pundits, even the conservative ones who are saying they messed up only because they wanted to break the story first are sugar coating it because they are professional colleagues with Rather and his crew. But knowing how liberal Mapes and Rather are, there is NO doubt in my mind that they wanted to help Kerry during "dump slime on Bush week." I do not believe it was an honorable mistake.

Is the list in your post (#45) your own? I just heard Rush go through your list almost verbatim.

Skypilot just changed his screen name to DirtDiver. Howlin, were you saying that there was a second CBS statement?
To: TheGeezer
But we did use the documents. We made a mistake in judgment, and for that I am sorry. It was an error that was made, however, in good faith and in the spirit of trying to carry on a CBS News tradition of investigative reporting without fear or favoritism
