Rathergate -- yet another lie?
When the obviously forged Bush documents were revealed to be typed on MS Word, the President of CBS said: "
the investigation would be over and public in weeks, not months"
Evil Glen the
Puppyblender brings this back to our awareness and mentions that two months have elapsed...
bq.
RATHERGATE UPDATE: Or non-update, as the case may be. It has now been two months since CBS President Andrew Heyward promised that the investigation would be over and public in "weeks, not months."
bq. It's been months, now. Just another statement from CBS that turned out to be false?
bq. Meanwhile, CBS remains an object of
mockery like this from Dave Barry in the Baltimore Sun: "Yes, it is a tragic but statistical fact that every Thanksgiving, undercooked turkeys claim the lives of an estimated 53 billion Americans (source: Dan Rather). Sometimes the cause is deadly bacteria; sometimes - in cases of extreme undercooking - the turkey actually springs up from the carving platter and pecks the would-be carver to death."
bq. Then there's
this, from Jack Colwell: "Dan Rather received a Turkey of the Year Award for his exclusive on discovery of the original recipes from the time of the Pilgrims for the first Thanksgiving dinner. The Pilgrims apparently printed them on an hp deskjet printer."
bq. Not good for the brand.
Heh... Not good for the brand indeed -- checked FOX News ratings recently??? Hmmm???
