Drudge reports that 60 Minutes wanted to report this garbage on election eve! The BC 04 campaign should be very aggressive on this story tomorrow to help set the record straight.

Why is DAN RATHER not fired? I think he should go to prison for the fraudulent and disgusting things he has done since that forged document story.
There needs to be ACCOUNTABILITY in the media.

I'm sure they'll try to "stay above it all" as they did with Rather. No reason for them to dirty their hands with this.

Maybe 60minutes should stop with the shopped story stuff. It keeps blowing up in their faces.

Executive producer Jeff Fager hoped to break the story during a high-impact election eve broadcast of 60 MINS on October 31

That's a heavy, heavy charge. Hope Drudge has something to back that up. If he does, the Pajama People have got to ride on Viacom again, and this time, we will not be turned back!

[The source behind the NYT story first went to CBSNEWS' 60 MINUTES last Wednesday, but the beleaguered network wasn't able to get the piece on the air as fast as the newspaper could print. Executive producer Jeff Fager hoped to break the story during a high-impact election eve broadcast of 60 MINS on October 31.]

The veneer of respectable journalism has completely worn away from the MSM.

Okay Guys.
Let me ask you this: do you think this is the end from those desperate animals? Trust me, there is more to come and they are going to throw everything they can at us.
Stay alert.
If they do throw something our way as big as this was going to be, send mass e-mails out to the media letting them know the other side.
I thank God for the alternative media that is out there now. Thank you Rush! Thank you Sean! Thank you Drudge! Thank you Laura! Thank you Savage!

we should all write letters to the FEC and FCC and have CBS and NY TIMES declared as partisan advertising for the Dems

This is precious:

A senior Bush official e-mailed DRUDGE late Monday: "Let me get this straight, are Mr. Kerry and Mr. Edwards now saying we did not go into Iraq SOON ENOUGH? We should have invaded and liberated Iraq sooner?"

Kerry and his gang are 100% desperate. They are looking to try to LIE, CHEAT, SCARE, OBFUSCATE, and STEAL this election away via any means necessary. PATHETIC!!!

Since the NYT story is turning out to be a big fat nothing (via NBC's info), CBS should be breathing a sigh of relief that they dodged a bullet. "Breaking" two debunked anti-Bush stories in a row would have completely trashed the program.

For just a minute there, I was PROUD of NBC for covering this story. When it comes down to it, what do they have to gain by running with this? Nothing - but it certainly means they have stepped in to uphold the honor of our boys who arrived to find the goods gone. The same boys THEY were embedded with during this war...

Could it be that there is someone with journalistic ethics left in this world?
