Another nail in the coffin....
The time for CBS to come clean was immediately upon realizing that they had likely been duped by a hoaxer. It would have meant egg on their faces for awhile, but the embarrassment would have eventually blown over and CBS may have even received grudging acknowledgment for at least admitting to and correcting their mistake professionally and quickly.
Instead, CBS has decided to circle the (flaming) wagon. At this point, the hoax can never be just an embarrassment - - the only conclusion now is full-blown scandal. It is simply unfathomable to me that CBS would commit suicide like this. No matter what they do next, it is already too late.
For CBS, the window of opportunity has closed.
if al gore discovered the internet before bill gates, maybe he typed the memo's in question!!!!!!!
Recklessly reporting dubious facts from a suspicious source
It's the coverup...
Standing behind the false story and trying to prove that forgeries are bona fide.
...that takes them down every time.
They believe they are invincible.
That their cozy relationship with the DNC, or those who share their liberal agenda, has made them partners in a deception to inform the American people of ONLY that which is FAVORABLE to their cause.
That they do this under the umbrellas of a so called NEWS PROGRAM FORMAT has had so many of us upset since forever.
Dan does NOT UNDERSTAND that we, the little people, CARE about the TRUTH and at the very least, some BALANCE in our news information. He does not understand that we are NOT STUPID.
And worse, he does not think that we can impact his ability to lie and spin and distort and cover-up and refuse to be accountable.
We can. And we are. And he cannot (he can no LONGER, that is) shove uncomfortable events under the table and 'move on'. He LIED to the American people by refusing to tell the full story of the guard service, he REFUSEd to include sources willing to be named, who DISAGREE and are HURT by this horrific hoax.
He is acting like he believes he is above this....so I assume he believes it.
This man does not have the COURAGE to tell the TRUTH when it might impact him and his buddies in the dem party.
LOLOL. Flaming in more than one respect, one might imagine.

If ABC or NBC wanted to regain their credibility and their ratings, they would go after this hard. The would regain thousands if not millions of viewers. At this point, what harm would it do, even if they too are Kerry/Dem supporters? Kerry is toast anyway. Even before this. Even is this were proven to be true. NO one cares about the Bush TANG story except the folks who are voting for Kerry anyway. Let this story flounder around for 7-10 days. It will drown Kerry out just like the SBVets. The MSM thinks they are helping Kerry, but are just hurting more every day.
Wait til the Investor Relations department at Viacom starts getting inquiries, then you'll see some folks at CBS get instant religion.
this kinda makes you grant grudging respect to CNN and it DID end the careers of Arnett, Jones and whatever the woman producer's name is .. how quickly we forget
We need to hit 'em where it hurts - right in the 'ol sponsor!
Yep. Now they are part of perpetrating the hoax. Cue Marvin the Martian... there's going to be a media-shattering KABOOM.
