Looks like Mapes is likely to go under the train.

Media experts said the affair had deeply damaged the credibility of CBS News, once home to anchor Walter Cronkite -- dubbed "the most trusted man in America."

I wouldn't trust Cronkite with my neighbor's pet frog! That Klinton butt kissing SOB is worthless. Most trusted name. As given by the socialist press. I never watched the SOB on TV. And, I never watch Blather either.

Great to see them reporting it, but don't you just love the between-the-lines punches still thrown at Bush from Yahoo news. What would I expect though? The message is the medium.

"It is obviously against CBS News standards and those of every other reputable news organization to be associated with any political agenda," CBS News said in a statement.

This is also known as 'The Big Lie'.

I really wish it was obvious, CBiaS, but it hasn't been for a long time.

"Bush has never fully accounted for his service during the Vietnam War, when he was given a coveted place in the National Guard while many of his peers were drafted and sent to fight in Vietnam. "

Even here, the media cannot give this lie a rest.

Credibility is critical to journalism...

It seems to be surviving without it...

Aly Colon, ethics group leader at the Poynter Institute for Media Studies, said if that is the case, CBS News may have crossed the line.

That fine line between terra firma and air most of us call a cliff...

Oh please, it doesn't take a blogger - in pajamas or otherwise - to see the patent absurdity in that statement.

Has anybody heard Bernie Goldberg's take on this? Is he commenting? I'd love to hear what he has to say.

Well, at least someone is picking up the ball and running with it.

This IS the story right here people. Don't let them make you feel sorry for them and accept their apologies.

This is HUGE!

The same Uncle Watler that lied to us about Tet and the Vietnam War??

I saw Lockhart, and he was definitely over-the-top lying, IMHO. He was just too up and bright---protesting too much!

Lockhart didn't seem to act as if there was anything at all unusual about exchanging favors with Mapes.

I suspect Joe had long been apprised of the story and knew of Rather's involvement. Mapes surely would have dropped Dano's name at every door she was trying to open related to this story.

Kat,

There is a simply proof of favoritism here.

Mapes promised to keep source of documents confidential (as long as source had not lied, which he had.)

However, she revealed source to Kerry campaign in form of Joe Lockhart!
