"They can still get away with it if the media doesn't get tough"

the web is keeping these media sources more honest. As they see the postings, emails gaining speed they cannot ignore the claims. The web imo is taking away the ability for nytimes, globe, post, latimes to control what we read. We can now get the story behind the story with so many blogs etc. the newpapers are no longer a need for communication. They really do not serve much of a purpose with exception of a few talented writers.

i don't think the swiftboat stuff just surfaced. i remember reading an article in the houston chronicle on o'neill back in about january, 2004, in which o'neill talked about some kerry fabrications and that he had debated kerry in 1971 on tv. o'neill said in that article that he was rounding up other swiftboat people to tell their side of the story about kerry's service. kerry's people had to have known if they made any missteps there would be some proof to offer up about kerry's service.
