CBS to admit memo's are fake...

[Ned]

Just now on CBS Evening News, they ran an interview with Burkett in which he stated that CBS needed to authenticate the documents. Rather admitted that CBS had not authenticated the documents. He apologized on behalf of CBS. Then he personally apologized. He said that the president of CBS has ordered an independent investigation.

So much for the "being misled" bull.

I heard CBS has hired OJ Simpson to help them find the "real" source of these memos.

I suspect that the investigation will lead to a search for a new CBS anchor. In fact, I suspect the search has already been ordered.

This is what I hate about the so-called "mainstream media". They tarnish the reputation of a president, and then after the damage is done, they are like "oops, we kinda lied. sorry!".

You like how Fox went after Clinton on: Whitewater, Vince Foster, the "hit list," etc.? When you poison the wells of your enemies, don't act surprised when they reply in kind.

I'm not defending the behavior of CBS. I'm just sick of the holier-than-thou BS of the Repugs who've turned lying into standard fare. You're like the roulette addict cheif of police in Cassablana proclaim that he is "shocked, SHOCKED! to find gambling going on at this establishment."

But Fox did not use forged documents, did they? I would have no problem with CBS if the documents had been true. If the documents were real and did prove that Bush got preferential treatment in the National Guard, that's a legit story. But CBS knew the docs were fake. They knew they doing a show and making claims about Bush that they were knew were unproven and based on forged evidence. That's unacceptable!

Che, your post is almost like saying that abortion clinic bombers are Republicans and all of Florida's fellons are Democrats.

You make it sound like the Repubs started it...

Both sides are pond scum... both use the media whenever it serves their interest.

But, this time it came back to bite the Media's Ass... a pleasent change. Ya gotta love it.

Surprise, surprise. The enemies of the Bush adminstration and America are taking quite a beating for promoting criminal acts (falsified documents).

Partisanness is as old as the government, but it has become especially bitter in the U.S. since the Repubs '94 campaign. They really went over the top under Gingrich, and haven't tamed any since he was tossed out. It's only been the last year and a half, really, that the Democrats discovered they had some testes. Pickled and kept in a jar on the shelf, but they had them none the less.

I'm sorry... it was bitter before then, and will pretty much always be bitter. I have a hard time listening to either side say the other is worse, or that the other started it... Again, both sides are pond scum, and I blame the democrats as much as I blame the republicans. The game of pointing and saying one side is worse is just that... a game. It ignores the fact that both sides are equally at fault.

No kidding, today's partisian bitterness is civilized compared to the old days of beating each other into vegetables and dueling to the death.

Hmmmm, sounds like someone too young to remember the Bork and Thomas confirmation hearings…
