Since basically all of CBS's 'experts' said they did not authenticate the documents, and that CBS gave them the impression they didn't care my guess is its not a set up but pure stupidity. The fact that they refuse to even admit there might be a POSSIBILITY of them being fake means they are going to stick with their bogus story and let it die rather then say who gave the documents to them. If they were indeed setup by the republicans wouldn't the first thing they would want to do let everyone know how they got them?
Or could it be that it came from the DNC or the Kerry campaign directly? If that were the case, revealing the source would put the knife in Kerry's back and twist it hard.
Dan Rather would not allow that to happen on his show.
The really funny thing is how the left has lost control of the media. Sure most of the major outlets still slant left to one degree or another, but where as before something like this would go almost unquestioned, now there are enough sources on the net, on the radio, and on the air that they can't count on that free pass they enjoyed for the last 30 years. One guy who sees these memos and has the right expertise no longer has to hope to get a editorial opinion on the 5pm local news slot, or pray they take his letter to the editor. He posts it on a highly visited website, and others pick it up and before long we all know about it. This sort of free flow of information is the one hope for our republic remaining free in the long run. As long as the government and the major media don't control the internet, they can't pull the wool over your eyes. Whenever a politician says something about the problems with talk radio, or the internet *cough Hilary Clinton cough* remember what it is they are trying to do away with. The free flow of ideas.
