CBS: America’s Al-Jazeera

As I expected CBS News is refusing to face reality. Instead their answer is “Fake but true“. The evidence is fake, but the sentiment is true. It seems that they have passed the point of no return. They will ride out the controversy at all costs. Why?

For the sake of attempting to throw the election. Sorry, that’s what they are trying to do – and the reality of the situation is so gruesome that I’m not sure that they even realize it.

They want Kerry to win, and will do anything to help salvage his campaign. The story has done damage to them – and by association to Kerry – and they are hoping, praying that a real memo (or a better faked one) will turn up that can survive scrutiny by the great unwashed, pajama-wearing masses. Hell, since Michael Moore played fast and loose with the facts in a “documentary”, why can’t CBS do the same with the news?

To hell with the facts, they want Bush to lose and they will do anything, and say anything to make that happen.

It’s a freaking melt-down, a psychotic-break. If CBS was a person, it would be climbing a bell tower with a rifle right about now; if it was a drunk, it would be downing it’s final bottle of Jack before pouring itself behind the wheel for a night of hell-raising in the car.

The end is not going to be pretty. And you know what?

It will all be for nothing. None of this will stick to Bush. They could raise Killian from the dead and shit real memos out of their righteous asses for weeks – and no one would care.

CBS is America’s al-Jazeera. They’ll be firing all the Jews and bagging their women in burqas in no time.
