1) Dan will say nothing about it...
2) Dan will say CBS still stands by their story...
3) Dan will say CBS is checking further... And will get back in a year or so...
IMHO I'm betting on 1, just ignore it and maybe it will go away.
BTW, the following is a fake...
I know it is a fake 'cause I made it...

1) Dan will say nothing about it...
Dan will announce an investigation of Jim Robinson and his motives for founding FreeRepublic. They will find evidence that he faked Bigfoot photos as a young man.
Dan can't discern between truth and lies.
How would he know what to say?
I am betting on CBS canning him soon.
Nothing. They've already said they stand by it and aren't even going to investigate. The story is over, there's nothing left to discuss. At least that attack was quite thuroughly defused, and ANG based attacks from the Kerry camp are now pretty much useless.
Dan will say, "It's tighter than a Texas tick on a bull's scrotum on the 4th of July." Or maybe he'll just tell us what the frequency is.
I am watching the local news here in NYC - just saw the local reporters talk to Dan about what is coming up. He didn't mention the scandal to her, but said something cryptic like it's a very full report.
Even better was her reply - "Take care of that voice Dan - maybe too many hurricanes"
I expect him to say nothing of the forgery and to continue to press the attack on Bush with the campaign docs that Drudge just shot down.
Put down PokeyJoe for:
Dan Blather will say, "Ladies and Gentlemen, . . . I have gathered before me, in my secret underground lair. four of the most lethal assisins in the world. Mustafa, Frau Bustybabe, Sir John Schlongalot, and Madonna."
He will put his pinky to his lips.... smile.... and laugh....
bwahahaha....
I'm Dan Rather and I'm an ignorant slut
"The authenticity of the memos cannot be determined or disproved, but the underlying questions, memos or not, remain for the President to answer."
He'll try and take the forged memos out of the limelight and keep pressure on Bush. That's the only way he can save face without looking like an utter fool to the Dems.
A story of a missing pregnant woman will hit the airwaves - a la the Sandy Berger sock stuffing incident and the missing pregnant lady from Utah - and the forgery story will fade away.
Will probably lead with the Kitty Kinky book release.
Out of hundreds of things against him, Rather will report on the one thing that backs his story. Or he'll cast doubt - using (liberal) experts - against those who stand against him. Maybe he'll uncover an early typewriter with a "th" on one key -- or that'll be saved for Friday -- Either way it'll ring hollow. Rather's a fool, he's been used or he's one of the gang. I have no idea which. Anyone?
My guess is he won't be on tonight. Someone will be filling in for him. If I win, do I get a prize?
He will not mention it but he will be in a fetal position. He now knows he cannot win this fight. He is a pathetic loser who has no life without this job. He will do anything to survive the storm. CBS will try to tough it out, but they will be the object of derision. CBS the network of fakes, frauds, and old farts.
It'll be 53 minutes of Dan staring silently at the camera and seven minutes of ads.
APf
I bet MORE time is spent on KK's "book", and the Abu Ghraib book.
He will claim that Hodges is lying.
He will claim that they had experts look at the document.
(Which we now know is false. The expert they had was a handwriting expert, not typescript experts. Also, they admit they only have copies. THEIR OWN EXPERT SAID THAT A COPY OF A DOC CAN'T BE CONFIRMED)
Either the above ideas...
Or he will say nothing about it.
Brit Hune is about to address the CBS MEMOS on FNC!
Brit Hume is going to have a segment on his show about the RatherGate scandal, it's the first time he's been on his show since the forgeries were outed, should be good.
