Mapes had to have told Lockhart about the memos. He's not going to get on the phone for just anybody -- that was Burkett's early complaint in his Texas Democrat forum. Nobody would give him the time of day at the Kerry headquarters. Later, he said that he was talking to the upper echelon and was very excited about pending news before the broadcast.
Burkett said he talked to "several low level bureaucratic kids" before he got to Cleland and Lockhart.
So, how MANY people in the Kerry campaign had Burkett worked with?
Why did Lockhart agree to talk to him?
Who typed the memos?
Who is "Lucy Ramirez"?
