Misled or Trying to Mislead?

According to this headline in the New York Times today, CBS is claiming to have been misled.

Really...?

How can you be misled if more than one source is claiming the material is not genuine? How can you be misled if handwriting experts won't certify authenticity? How can you be misled if you ignore all of the warning signs and only focus on one source that points to the pre-ordained outcome?

But now CBS is claiming to be a victim. YA - UH HUH.

CBS has been defending Rather all the time hoping this would just go away. And now that they finally are dealing with the F-O-R-G-E-R-Y issue, Rather will be bagged and they will get back to business as usual.

Don't get me wrong - Rather needs to go. But there also has to be an investigation into the paper trail...how did the forged memo get from Point A to Point B and then CBS.

AND - who IS Point B?

Methinks that Rather is toast...didja see him trash FoxNews yesterday? that was hilarious because the Dallas reporter used classic Rather tactics when approaching him at the airport.

And finally - fellow AZ blogger desert cat has a great link to more salacious information on Dan Rather - check it out.
