In a statement, CBS said former Texas Guard official Bill Burkett "has acknowledged that he provided the now-disputed documents" and "admits that he deliberately misled the CBS News producer working on the report, giving her a false account of the documents' origins to protect a promise of confidentiality to the actual source."

Sounds like another CYA memo to me.

What in the heck does this mean, translated into English? What "false account" did Burkett give? What is the TRUE origin of the documents? Who is their source? Because they're phony, CBS shouldn't have any legitimate claims of confidentiality to protect.
