Statement by the President of CBS News, Andrew Heyward:

We should watch the stock trading activity of CBS insiders for an early clue that they are ready to admit using forged documents.

BUMP

And we, the great unwashed out here in our pea-stained jammies in (sic (sorry)) floyover land, are not supposed to wonder about what the penalties are for forging an officer's signature on a forged document when the country is at war?

LMAO glad I'm not at work today.

BTW there are whirled peas on my PJs. Imagine that.

[freedomlover]

PJ Patriots would work too

Put Heyward in an $80 suit and he couldn't get a job as a cub reporter with a throwaway. What a pompous idiot. Maybe Heyward's money buys him enough "yes men" to keep reality at bay. Or maybe it's something else.

Is he really so divorced from reality he feels pushing forged documents is OK, if they support his preconceived notions?

No, that's not it.

What it is, is that the people who feed him the good stuff are out of power -- and that's the only talent he has. He feeds off those who use him. Heyward's shamed journalism and so has CBS.

Re your post 39, maybe it's not a matter of taking the time, it is possible that he really doesn't know how to spell "corroborating."

When you see something like this in an "official" statement, you start to wonder about their overall competency.

Arrrggghhh.
Thats kidderp@wfrv.cbs.com

Sorry folks. Dyslexia si dab thingy.

"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."

Translation: "We really want to admit these were bogus and move on, but we've invested too much credibility so far."
