Cori at Rantingprofs feels the same way as Bill at Beldar. NOW I'M MAD By Cori Dauber Up until now I've just been bemused at the spectacle of CBS News being taken down by a bunch of bloggers. Now I'm just mad. Because now it looks as if the CBS knew the documents were questionable before they aired the story. How do we know? The document experts they rely on seem to care a bit more about the future of their careers than ole Dan does. Allahpundit thinks they may have even had the extra two documents USA Today had, but only given their experts a single document per expert so as to be able to cherry pick the most defensible ones. CBS, meanwhile, didn't even put a new defense up yesterday.
