Killian supervisor misled by CBS
2004-09-11
From ABCNews blog; you may need to scroll down.
Retired Maj. General Hodges, Killian's supervisor at the Grd, tells ABC News that he feels CBS misled him about the documents they uncovered. According to Hodges, CBS told him the documents were "handwritten" and after CBS read him excerpts he said, "well if he wrote them that's what he felt." Hodges also said he did not see the documents in the 70's and he cannot authenticate the documents or the contents. His personal belief is that the documents have been "computer generated" and are a "fraud".

#2  Love the response of Michael Medved:

Michael Medved, host of a nationally syndicated radio program and a media critic, believes that if the documents are proven false, it may mean the end of Dan Rather's career.

"I honestly believe that if this continues to go the way it's going, it could mean the end of Dan Rather's illustrious career," Medved told CNSNews.com.

Medved called the potential that the documents were forged "absolutely shocking."

"What is most shocking about it is [CBS News] didn't have ready at hand -- some kind of immediate memo that said this is how we authenticated, this is how we documented," Medved said.

"The fact that they haven't issued anything like that just is a stunning admission of journalistic malfeasance," he added.
