Oh, yeah... am I the only one to notice how deeply the MSM has buried the kerry

They may have burried it from us, but not from themselves. Kerry saw to it that the media will take care before it buys what a democratic campaign puts out again.

One big advantage a Democratic campaign had, was it could feed the press accusations about Republicans and the media would go with it. Because in the past there had always been a plausable grain of truth in the accusation.

This time it turned out to be fake and a lie. From now on the media will not be sure that what a democrats feeds them is not a fake and a lie.

It will be harder for Democrats to use the media to trash Republicans. No one in the media wants to be the next Dan Rather.

They would like to go with the crap the Democrats feed them but for a while many in the media will fear to go with it on the Democrat campaign's word. Kerry managed to screw future Democrat candidates. That is not lost on other Democratic candidates.

Yep. The blogosphere kicked cbs to the curb nice and hard. Starting with Buckhead and others here at FR, then Sheffield at ratherbiased and on to powerline and Drudge. By then, it was raging out of control and all rather and his crew could do was feebly circle the wagons and hunker down for the inevitable massacre. George and Dick must have been rolling on the WH floor laughing.

Personally, I don't think cbs has any scruples at all about lying or about defaming a public figure or about interfering in a federal election. I think they've always done this, deliberately and knowingly. IMO, they just couldn't believe that they'd ever get caught and exposed -- much less by "a bunch of guys in pajamas."

Here's an example of what I mean. Back in 1988, rather and cbs had no compunction about spreading lies about the war in Vietnam. In fact, that program, which has long since been exposed as fraudulent by Burkett and many others, is still in the network's "history archive." CBS knew then and knows now that the men rather interviewed were liars, but they persist in those lies -- just as they continue to insist that they and rather were somehow "taken in" by the childishly crude forgeries of a delusional mental case.
