Am I missing something here? Didn't the Dems use the forgeries in political ads that started running within a day or days of the 60 Minutes broadcast? In fact, aren't they still running them?
It does take a little time to edit a political spot and get it distributed out to all the stations for broadcast. I wonder what the normal turnaround time is for this and what was actually achieved by the Dems. There could be a smoking gun here if anyone has some hard data.
Aye, I know people who are in ad-buying business.
It may be different for block political ads, but still...
between the scheduling and the people who produced the ad,
we should be able to get an idea of the timeline.
And the players!
Rules #1/2/3, whatever a Lying Rat says it is the complete opposite! Translation: There is a definite connection between the campaign and the papers.

Exactly. Someone needs to find out what video production company the DNC used for their "fortunate son" piece and look at their production/post production dates. When was the voice over recorded? Who is the VO talent and when was the VO session? Who edited the video and when? When was the video onlined? When/Who did the video dupes and transfers for web streaming. If CBS gave the DNC the Ben Barnes/Rather footage and if the voice over was recorded BEFORE the hit piece was aired on CBS, it is hard proof of collusion.
I would also like to know why Tom Harkin and Terry McAuliffe held a press conference the next morning waving these forgeries to any camera with a red light on them.
Someone should question Harkin. His lying fanny has been AWOL since 9/10/04.
