#1 CBS "news writers" go on strike. Does that mean CBS will now be doing actual news and not "news stories"?

#2 CBS? Isn't that the network of "fake but accurate" infamy?

#3 "If it is CBS, it has to be fake!"

Much like the Onion, without the humor.

#4 At first I thought that CBS's bogus vets were commiting suicide what with all the good news coming out of Iraq lately. Sadly, it's yet more see-BS dregs trying to salvage a failed narrative with fake but politically correct manufactured news.

#5 Had they checked with any other NATIONAL NON LEFT-WING groups they would have found that the data they were peddling was total Bravo Sierra. But that would not fit into the new tatic taht since we are winning the war there vets (whom SeeBS could care less about) are suffering more under Bush.

#7 #1: CBS "news writers" go on strike. Does that mean CBS will now be doing actual news and not "news stories"?

No, now it just means they have to think up their own lies.
No "Writers" to lie for them.

#8 In other words, they can now be blamed directly, before they had a "Buffer" betweeen themselves and the lawsuits, now they have to find another dodge, the "Writers" aren't there to blame anymore.

#9 A late thought, there's absolutely NO NEED for "Writers" if you're a "Reporter".

Only if you're a liar in the first place.

Reporters Report what happened, Only liars need "Writers" to make it up.

So now they're self-confessed Liars.
