That was quick
Looks like this CBS "forged document" story has legs. From today's Washington Post
After doubts about the documents began circulating on the Internet yesterday morning, The Post contacted several independent experts who said they appeared to have been generated by a word processor. An examination of the documents by The Post shows that they are formatted differently from other Texas Air National Guard documents whose authenticity is not questioned.
The blogosphere was on fire with this story today. As I said, I was skeptical at first, but it seems to have merit.
Is it too much to ask that the major media outlets be a little less cocky and holier-than-thou going forward? They accuse bloggers of being sloppy in their research and negligent in their fact checking, yet it happens again and again that the blog world steps forward and does the homework that retail media fails to do.
Outstanding job, guys.
