A group of prophets predict the pickers’ future without them
I read on Michael Duff's blog that CBS is trying to claim "Yes, the memos are fake, but we believe they are accurate."
Please.
Do not treat me like an idiot. You got caught. You allowed your bias to overrule your journalistic integrity (Ha!). Do not compound your mistake now by refusing to own up to it. (Anyone notice a theme here? Take responsibility for your actions? I have never mentioned that before have I?)
Their own article points out that different document examiners have gone on record as saying the articles could not be authenticated. Even the guy they are relying is paraphrased in the article. (And I quote)
Come on guys, spin it all you want, but it looks to me like you got caught with your hand in the cookie jar. All I see is spin, lies, and more spin. As an organization you have abused the public trust and have called into question the veracity of all reporting coming out of your network news organization.
Each refusal to own up to the problem/mistake/blatant lie hammers another nail into the coffin that contains your credibility.

However, Matley has told CNN, The Washington Post and other media organizations that his work was limited to verifying that the signatures on the memos came from the same source. He did not, he says, claim that the documents themselves were authentic
