Maybe by the morning there will be some validation, but for now, there are many of us still willing to believe that the memos are credible evidence

Spehres, those documents were obviously done in Microsoft Word. Same font, same spacing, same kerning, same superscripts, same everything.

Now maybe CBS News has a good explanation of why they put up Word documents and told us they were 1973 memos. I'm still waiting to hear it.

They're going to have to plead incompetence, that they were told that transcripts were originals, and didn't bother to look at them. Or maybe they forget to mention that they were transcripts on the web site. There is really no other explanation. You would think the forger could have at least found an old typewriter to write the memos.

Update: Powerline found a real Killian memo from 5 September 1973 for comparison, and has a shot of it next to the CBS fake August 18 1973 memo. Go to the bottom of this post and look at the word "to" in each of the memos, and you will see the difference kerning makes:
