That's what happens when you allow yourself to be blinded by a lust for power and by seething, irrational, partisan hatred. That's kind of frightening to me - their hatred for Bush is so intense that they didn't even go through the motions of authenticating what they had - they just ran with it because they were convinced it would torpedo him. That's a level of hatred close to that of the Islamofascists.
CBS reaches millions and millions. And who knows how many people just accept what they say as truth.
Hopefully this episode reduces their ranks significantly.
We've got to hammer home the links between the 'methods' of CBS and the Jayson Blair scandal, Stephen Glass, etc. They would never have leapt so recklessly and uncritically to trumpet fraudulent documents which SUPPORT Bush or UNDERMINE Senator John Freakface Kerry!
This should turn into the Watergate of the major media.
