I am saying that CBS's actions made them complicit in the promotion of the forgery. They had evidence that they weren't true, and ignored it.

And so we're back to what "they" means.

Certainly somebody at CBS had some indication that they might not be the real thing. We don't KNOW who that was or how they came to proceed despite it. We don't KNOW that anyone "knew" they were bogus. All we KNOW is that some experts have said that they suggested problems to someone there. There are all sorts of possibilities for what came next.

That language is fine with me. Whether they knowingly promoted a fraud or whether they were blinded by their bias or incompetence, they were complicit is in all likelihood a forgery.

As usual, I'm not arguing against anything more that the zealous assertion that we KNOW that CBS (or anyone in CBS) intentionally perpetrated a fraud, which is where I started.

Sorry for any boredom that ensued. <g>
