sure they did...

I still own an IBM selectric, but they will not do proportional spacing. Only a PC could duplicate what was presented.
Photo copy was so poor quality they thought they would not get caught.
I actually worked for a time with Bill Burkett. Many years before the RatherGate incident. Bill was always a died in the wool tattooed on the butt Dem. He was a National Guard officer when I knew him. He was the guy who made the connection for Dan Rather to get the forgery. It was copied at Kinko’s in Abilene, TX. Dan Rather’s daughter was involved in the scam.
BTTT
They freely released Zimmermans name but are hiding the name of the person who attempted to get him lynched....
All those names seem familiar, but it also seems a lifetime ago.
Wasn’t it his daughter that was also connected to Mapes?
Still true 8 years later -- in Texas, Forgery is a Third-Degree Felony, and to transmit by wire is an enhancement.
<"size=30">Ditto, man DITTO. We don't know how much they are fibbing to us this time.
TRANSLATION: They’re transferring him to Center for American Progress (or Media Matters).
Same as when (avowed communist) Van Jones left the White House.
They just reshuffle and promote.
It’s a badge of honor to attack the truth, so this sort of “sacrifice” is actually a resume enhancement.
Do they think no one else has any experience with equipment? Many high school have audio/visual equipment for sport event use... all run by students.
Yep. They had all been to a meeting of local Dem officials near Abilene. The woman “blamed” for the forgery was from San Antonio.
sure they did...
Yep. But obviously no legal penalties apply to Dems. They mean well, so the law does not apply. /sarcasm Any law.
Maybe the law is dumb in this area, but to defame a public figure, simple negligence isn’t sufficient. The plaintiff must prove “actual malice,” i.e., knowledge of falsity or reckless disregard of whether X was true or false. It looks the producer of that segment meets that strict standard. But NBC may advance a rogue producer narrative, according to which it would be guilty of is falling for the deception of the evil producer. That’s simple negligence, at worst.
And absent a smoking-gun e-mail or other definitive evidence showing that higher-ups at NBC were in on the deception, NBC just might get away with it.
But that’s a legal analysis.
Public relations might dictate settling quick, because a drawn-out case in which NBC’s DEFENSE is “We’re not guilty because we’re idiots, not deliberate liars” would do much more reputation damage than would a million or so forked over to Zimmerman, cloaked by a confidentiality agreement.
FYI...see the link in post 161
It was pointed out that the only typewriter capable of changing font was the IBM select-matic,(which we all discussed for awhile) Then BH pointed out that a machine capable of the creating that font and spacing had not been invented and it had to be computer created. More discussion. Then Howlin recognized what had been discovered and started a fresh thread.
Was on both threads. The first where it was discussed and the second created by Howlin to get the word out and bring attention to the fraud.
I miss Howlin...
I hope Zimmerman has lots of good lawyers....He should be compensated over this effine nonsense and because his life has been temporary ruined.....

I was there... it was magic!
