I smell a sneaky trick about to be sprung, and this explains why Rather isn't backing down. They are going to proclaim the originals WERE handwritten, and that all this internet frenzy about "forgeries" is "much ado about nothing".....

I heard Rather on 9PM radio news talking about why the TYPED document was authentic (his "th" excuse).

The "originals were handwritten" dog can't possibly hunt if they're trying to defend the technical aspects of the typed ones. Doesn't mean they won't try, but it would be a monumental knee-slapper.

Misdirection.
