The CBS mess regarding the forged documents is fascinating to observe don’t you think? CBS is claiming they were misled. What a spin. We’re to believe that this Burkett guy with a known history of “unusual” behavior and some patently phony documents of questionable origin, misled a tough and seasoned news organization?
CBS (read Dan Rather and team) thought that because of who they are, and because they had some document props, the focus would go to the story not the credibility of the documentation they were offering in its support. This was not a news story. According to them they had been working on this for 4 to 5 years; and it came to fruition just a few weeks prior to the presidential election? It was an agenda item.
They failed to figure on some Internet bloggers with contact to the world via the Internet who, while “working in their pajamas”, would be looking over their shoulder. It’s too, too, delicious. The interesting thing will be to watch as the debacle moves through its denouement.
