Just heard from a very reliable source that CBS is looking into the political donations of document examiner Sandra Ramsey Lines, fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences, who assessed the memos for CNN and for the Associated Press.

Well, that's that.
Between that and misleading experts, and exaggerating
the conclusions of others, CBS is never going to be
able to hire another expert for anything ever again.
Suicide Journalism indeed.

So is CBS now getting into the "investigative journalism" business?
Reminds me of the last days of the USSR and eastern europe. :-)
Bump for future slam when Demos I know try to discredit Ramsey!
CBS is the Michael Moore of network news.
I wish they'd done all this research on the memos, their sources, etc. BEFORE they had to dig up dirt on the forensic exminers.
Chasin the blues, just minutes from news..., now here's ten in a row.
Kooks for Kerry.
Buy stock in Prozac makers!
Congressman Billybob (freeper here) posted that most of the information that was wrong was a result of personal information that the Dukakis staffer kerry recently hired would have been most likely to get wrong. (excuse run on) IOW The errors are traceable back to Kamp Kerry.
But, she doesn't appear listed on Mind Wave's corporate board...
MindWave Research's Company Bios
Jonathan Hilland is shown as the CEO.
I did notice that the Mind Wave listed that show Robin Rather as CEO has a space between "Mind" and "Wave". The name on the web site is all together. This company is located in Austin, TX with a ZIP code of "78701", not "78704". The other googled items don't show any thing similar in Texas to any close ZIP.
Looks like this would be Danny's daughter's place of business.
That is, of course, unless she is no longer working there (as it seems), but is working somewhere else. You know...maybe campaigning with someone running for office? Who knows?
Do note that I seemed to do more investigating in about 10 minutes than Danny's whole production team did in 6 weeks. I have even opened the possibility and included in my analysis that the Mind Wave Research referred to in his daughter's own political contributions might not be the same Mindwave Research I found...even though it is in Austin, TX at a very similar ZIP code.
Also, do you find it curious that Robin Rather works a a company that is almost exclusively devoted to "Public Opinion Polling"?
Note: Reported company revenues are from $1 to $2.5 million, so I don't think they are doing major, major jobs, but so you know...
| Democrats will stop at nothing to steal an election. |
That's the lesson everyone should be learning from this... |
This is encouraging to see. As factions of the Democrats behave like this, it's a sign of disarray. It's clear Rather and CBS are forced to try to save their own hide at long odds, against the interests of the larger movement (like a stock market crash). The movement would rather they eat a little crow and cut the losses, but they can't enforce it.
This is a symptom of the decay and lack of leadership of the Dem movement. The Clintons may think they have control of the situation, but their vehicle is careening at the moment.
There's an interesting auction right now on eBay for an item which might solve some of CBS's problems in the future:

If they are going to check Lines' donations, we should check their man Matley's.
