Bush won't sue, but I think if this turns out to be true (fakes), 60 Minutes is finished.

"Bush won't sue, but I think if this turns out to be true (fakes), 60 Minutes is finished."

You're dreaming. Remember NBC and Stone Phillips (I think it was) who had the show which said that Chevy truck gas tanks would explode in a crash? They had dramatic test footage showing a truck getting hit by a car and blowing up. Turns out that they had rigged explosives in the gas tank because they wanted to make sure it blew up.

Stone Phillips and all the rest at NBC are still on the job. And 60 Minutes has done stupid stuff like this before and survived it. It will only make a small dent in their viewership and soon it will all be forgotten.

They have been caught several times faking stories, and they are still there.

Kudos for the freepers Shawn Hannity just gave us a big thumbs up for uncovering this story. Some freeper sent him a heads up on this. Also said Drudge has it as lead story.

(I exclude myself from those kudos since I am mostly a reader/griper)
