Did you notice this part?

In September 2004, the CBS News program 60 Minutes decided to delay a major story on the forgeries because such a broadcast might influence the 2004 U.S. presidential election. A CBS spokesman stated, "We now believe it would be inappropriate to air the report so close to the presidential election." [8]


What a joke our "free and responsible" media has become! One would think that such reportage is most appropriate when the people can use it to make an informed decision and NOT after the fact...but I guess "responsible" reporting means journalism when it yields no material effects. :(
