Obviously, it should be done probably after the election is over so that it doesn't affect what's going on,...

Too late. But here's a clue, it isn't helping Kerry.

But he said he did not want it to interfere with the Nov. 2 election. "Obviously, it should be done probably after the election is over so that it doesn't affect what's going on,"

Very responsible of CBS I must say. (/sarcasm)

My translation of this statement is, If the truth comes out it will hurt the Democrat's!

Using faked documents before the election to influence the election is OK. Investigating the sloppy and bias reporting before the election is evil. Makes perfect sense.

...probably not be concluded until after the November election so as not to interfere with the presidential race, a top executive said on Tuesday.

Oh, but it's OK to broadcast a bogus story with phony documents that could "interfere with the presidential race". But their not biased, why would we think such a thing?

The Republicans should insist that the interim findings of the investigation to be made public, voters have the right to know, BEFORE the election, just exactly what rold the Kerry campaign played.

After all, we already know that Lockhart talked with Burkett.

What are the fine investigative reporters doing?

"Obviously, it should be done probably after the election is over so that it doesn't affect what's going on,"

Why not? If Kerry wins and then we find out that he was all over this, people will start calling for impeachment. Why put everyone through that if you know who's involved beforehand?

Too bad the news folks didn't have the same standard.

Well, considering they were working on this story for 5 years to get lies, I can only imagine how long it will take them to figure out the truth.

If this is an independent review, why would CBS be speaking for them?

Greetings, fellow Freepers, lurkers, Patriots, and all USA-loving folks!

This is the new media speaking, and we are growing faster than a pond full of guppies. The old media is dead—they just don’t know it yet. But they are starting to sense it, and are panicking.

The genie is out of the bottle. The internet now has hundreds of millions of fact-checkers, lie detectors, and cool brainiacs in their pajamas, laughing our butts off at the lame attempts of the “journalism majors” on TV to spin things their way.

The media wing of the democrat party is dying. CBS, ABC, NBC, all except FOX are tanking in their ratings, losing money, and dying a slow, welcome death.

Who broke the Dan Rather phony document story? One of our braniacs here, in pajamas, Buckhead. The “th” heard round-the-world ignited blew Dan out of the water in a couple of hours.

For those of you new here, this is not uncommon. Free Republic has over 100,000 registered users, and a whole lot more than that come here every day. We have scientists, brilliant PhD’s, gun owners, good-ole-small business owners, Capitalists, meat-eaters, and some of the most brilliant in the media. Yes, they lurk here, too. They know that Free Republic breaks stories faster, and more accurately, than any site, or any media, in the world.

Thanks to Jim Robinson, the founder. He was sick of the Clinton lies and crimes, and did something about it. He started this site. At first it barely survived, and Jim put his money where his mouth is. He almost lost his house. Some of us early folks here remember mailing checks in, to keep it running. We knew how important this place is, and now the world knows.

Feel like throwing a brick through your TV every time you watch CNN? Do something about it. Don’t just lurk, jump in with us. Become part of history, and tell your grandkids you were one of the early supporters. Yes, this is early. Very early. Believe it or not, this site is only 6 years old. When you look back in 20 years, you will be proud to have been a part of the founding.

Please join us, and contribute. Do it by credit card. Become a monthly donor—just send $3 a month. That’s all it takes. Think your $3 a month won’t make a difference? You are wrong. It makes all the difference in the world. Just like this site. And when you see your name on the monthly donor list, you will feel so proud! It’s amazing how it lifts you up, to know that you are making a difference.

I know that for some of you, even that small amount hurts. I’ve been there, believe me. But when you see that line item in your credit card bill every month, you will smile from ear-to-ear, and know that you are actually making a difference in this screwed-up world.

Come on in, and join us, and let’s change the world!

If Bush wins, rogues from Kerry campaign were behind it all (can`t implicate the Dems) If Kerry wins the point is moot.
