Statement by the President of CBS News, Andrew Heyward:
"We established to our satisfaction that the memos were accurate or we would not have put them on television. There was a great deal of coroborating [sic] evidence from people in a position to know. Having said that, given all the questions about them, we believe we should redouble our efforts to answer those questions, so that's what we are doing."
Their NY site give a lot of email addys for different featured sections on their site but no address for the newsroom or anyone in real power..Any ideas ???
To the contrary....LET'S GET READY TO RHUMBA!!!.....
And here's a theory as to why, which ties into 2 other facts.
1) Rather won't retire until spring, until after the Pres. election
2)He's been working on this story for 5 years.
3) In other words, use it now, or never. He's been saving the Mother of All Scoops and can't stand to see it go to waste, so he fudged the verification.
This tells me they're in so deep there is no way out, and the only thing they can do is brazenly pretend the problem doesn't exist.
This also tells me the scam goes straight to the DNC and Kerry Campaign inner circles. If it were simply some nobody feeding them forged documents, they could fess up to that.
CBS is cooked. Hopefully so are the DNC and Kerry Campaign.
I dropped a message in the 'feedback' box but I doubt that goes anywhere. Hmmm, I wish I had my laptop. I think I have them in there.
I noticed a little word stumbling around then myself...wonder if anyone's conscience will ever kick in on this one?
When the CBS exec said bloggers are nothing more than slobs in their pajamas -he obviously thought we all wear fuzzy jammies with feet and suck on binkys.
Nothing more than Homer Simpsons with laptops.
But, even Homer Simpson would be insulted by this statement.
And I bet even Homer could spell better.
BTW-NBC Nightly News did a pretty fair piece tonight on the CBS scandal, except that said that Granny verified that George Bush missed his flight physical.
Pres. Clinton, and Administration officials, react to Sandy Berger's comment that he can't sit straight up because he has classified documents in his pants.
Wow, thank you for the link!!!!!!!
Let's see how well they've buried the Swifties when their new ad comes out tomorrow (or Friday).
Here is Hayward's FAX number so I'm told ..
LOL
Heheheh. Actually, it's an old Zap comix line. But I like YOURS better!!
oops 212-975-1893 Heyward's Fax
if that is you, then you're the man!
Phoenix TV : 5feedback@kpho.com
She contradicts her first public statement, in which she said that she had no personal knowledge of 1Lt. GW Bush.
Also says Killian didn't like Bush.
She contradicts Killian's widow, who last week said her husband liked Bush, and was proud to have him in the ANG.
Freepers could help with the questions
It was one obvious key element in the DNC/Kerry campaign's coordinated 'Fortunate Son' attack on the President.
Well said!
