Moonves is so oily....

I lose ALL respect for any man who marries a second wife that is young enough to be his daughter.

Please let it happen. And besides, the actual source of the fraudulent documents must be exposed. Why are they protecting a source of fraudulent documents? IMO, CBS should be charged with criminal conspiracy for attempting to undermine a US presidential election by fraudulent means. They can plea bargain for dismissal folowing disclosure of their source(s).

I certainly hope he was smart enough to make copies before he made that threat .. because otherwise - they have probably already disappeared.

Dan said "When the charge has something to do with somebody's private sex life, I would prefer not to run any of it. "

in response to why he didn't report on the Betty Broderick/Clinton case.

Since when is rape a "private" sex life?

Interesting. If he can show they pushed the story (which they obviously did) and are making him and others the fall guys, court is the place to be.

Incidentally, just in the past few days I've read articles by MSM such as ABC talking about how CBS "fired" four people and I and others here at FR pointed out they were not all fired. Mapes was fired, the other three were asked for their resignations and have not given them.

Obviously sympathetic colleagues at other outlets trying to give cover to CBS for their outrage. The whole lot of them are pathetic.

The sad part is .. you never threaten your enemy unless you already have copies of everything stashed away.

These people that were fired are "not going gently into the night"

They were not fired. They were asked to resign and have not done so.

Alas, as with a legion of other FReepers, I've erased his (Drudge) site from my favorites

Drudge is my homepage, as he is for millions of news junkies across America and the world.

He might get quirky once in a while, but Drudge is still the premier driving force in regards to Internet news, bar none.

I've lost count of how many influential people in the US willingly admit to going to Drudge first thing each morning, including every single talk show host here on WPHT in Philly. Also Hannity, Bennett,Ingraham, and nearly every single newspaper reporter where I work. (mid-sized Mid-Atlantic circulation).

For those in doubt, just run your Adaware after your visit there.

Upgrade your XP to Service Pack 2 and all those will be blocked.

Ooooo this almost might make up for the NHL canceling it's season.

I just can't wait for Rather and the rest to get pucked.

Looks like Howard and a few of the others may just be making noise...in an attempt to try and keep even a shred of credibility. Well, too late.

Any e-mails they may present ....likely...will just be part of e-mail transcripts. Meaning they won't show all that came before and after.

Keep in mind....these are journalists that we are talking about here. Taking things out of context is a way of life for them.


And the problem that they will likely run into is the fact that folks like ole Les are corporate types, at least now, and have a habit of saving ENTIRE e-mail transcripts as a way to cover their own ---.

And then there is the other side of the coin. Howard and the others are used to hanging out in their Northeastern coffee house mindset and spewing liberal stupidity when they write and speak. Because they live in that liberal bubble, nobody calls them on it. So they feel free to write and say whatever, and don't worry of the consequence.

Folks like ole Les know when it is best not to write down or say something. Or keep records that are other than e-mail. Again, covering their own a--.

Would not be shocked to see Moonves fire those folks soon. Howard, Mapes, and the others are not doing themselves any service. They have already locked up their legacies as frauds.

HOWEVER, they are doing the rest of us a huge service...as they cause an even greater implosion at CBS.

I believe we are about to see them turn on themselves

I (like many others here) would like to believe you're right.
Been disappointed too many times over the years to get my hopes up though.
If you can remember to do it, please ping me when/if this bears any fruit.
Thanks in advance.

IIRC, the report said Mapes called Lockhart and gave him Burkett's (sp) phone number. Buuuuttttt, that was only so Burkett could run a couple of campaign ideas by Lockhart, it didn't have anything to do with this story or anything like that. Yeah, Karl Rove called me a couple of times during the campaign asking what I thought they should do next to get the numbers up. (/sarcasm)

Betcha he made a copy of them.

It is always good to make a friend on the Exchange Admin team who can get you a copy of those .edb and .stm files... Just in case.
