Bingo. FR was first. The blogs were second. Drudge was actually one of the last ones to pick up on the story.

I've never been internet savvy, necessarily, but even I can tell the diffence between discussion forums (message boards, what have you) and a blog. Just goes to show how lazy these folks are. (Journalists, I mean)

They deserve the pounding they are taking.

Amen, sister! We all had to plunge into the middle of 'em and teach some the basics of FR. I never saw so many vanities!

New Vietnam Storm Hits Campaign

NEW YORK, Sept. 8, 2004

(CBS) By CBSNews.com Chief Political Writer David Paul Kuhn

The controversy over President Bush's National Guard service during the Vietnam War should have little effect on voters’ views of the incumbent, experts said in interviews Wednesday.

To gain electoral ground, these same experts contend, Democrats must establish a clear pattern that damages the commander-in-chief's credibility. But it may be too little, too late for Democrats. The public may be already numb to Vietnam politics in this presidential election.

I'm sure he did, since the subject line was:

Here is the thread that FIRST FOUND the CBS documents were fake.

That's exactly why I compiled that thread; by that date, the "legend" was already taking shape that it was blogs, not us, that found the discrepancies.

For those who missed the broadcast, like me, it repeats at midnight EST. Set the VCR's.

I've got it on TiVo, could cap it now, but I have to go to tennis practice. Ping me later, if no one puts a cap up in the meantime.

Hats off to MizSterious and snopercod as well!

As for the blogs, FR is still the best clearinghouse for news and expertise of all sorts on the web. No blog can beat that :)

You know what I read today? That Mary Mapes HAD the proof in her hands that Bush had, in fact, asked to go to Vietnam, but other more experienced pilots were sent, but she just completely ignored it! They say it's in that report.
