Ms. Shiner was presumably referring to Woodward's controversial book "Veil" in which he described an interview he claims to have had with Reagan's CIA director, William Casey. A problem arises in that Mr. Casey had just had a portion of his brain removed by surgery and, according to his family, had lost the faculty of speech. Nor was Mr. Woodward's presence in Casey's hospital room noted by the federal agents who were guarding him around the clock. Challenged by Ted Koppel to describe the interior of Casey's room, Mr. Woodward declined to do so, mumbling that he had to protect his sources. One can but wonder what it would take, in Mr. Cohen's opinion, to impeach Bob Woodward's veracity.
From here, a short summary of Woodward's embarrassments with his deathbed interview with Casey.

All it would take to "to impeach Bob Woodward's veracity" is a little devotion to the notion of Truth, but Dims are blinded by the Left and don't believe in Truth, only in the Special Theory of Relatively Convenient Belief Systems.

Who sent for the clowns? Stupidity shines eternal.

Koppel should have followed up by asking Woodward if he could describe the interior of his own colon... ;-)

Aside:

Just to note in passing that Hillary and Woodward share the same publisher, Simon and Shuster, including the $8M deal for the former, and "All the President's Men" for the latter...

(Makes me go "hmmmmmm, spooooky...." big time...)
