CBS

This is pretty much how I feel about Fox, too:

Cadaverous has-been radio personality Don Imus has been fired by CBS for saying the Rutgers women's basketball team looked like "nappy-headed hos." Good riddance.

But many people have compared Imus' misdeeds to others, whose careers are still thriving.

Rosie O'Donnell has repeatedly suggested that 9/11 was an inside job. Michael Medved asks,

Jed Babbin:

There are lies, damned lies and MSM polls:

I wake up each morning to the local CBS all-news station. This morning, they were recounting some allegations of "abuse" by Gitmo detainees that were obtained by FOIA. I have yet to hear any doubt expressed about the content of these allegations in a single instance of these reports, nor have I ever heard the station mention that al Qaeda terrorists are trained to make false accusations of abuse. Of course, they are trained to do this exactly because they know that our mediots will believe them rather than our military.

CBS has been reporting that Ken Starr has come out against ending the unconstitutional filibusters against judicial nominees. In the new Bench Memos blog on National Review Online, Ramesh Ponnuru sets the record straight:

CBS, AP, and other outlets reported earlier this week that Starr had said that getting rid of the judicial filibuster would be a “radical, radical departure from our history and our traditions, and it amounts to an assault on the judicial branch of government.”
This seemed like a very odd thing for Starr to say, so I contacted him. He forwarded to me an email he had sent to someone else who had asked about this matter:

In the piece that I have now seen, and which I gather is being lavishly quoted, CBS employed two snippets. The 'radical departure' snippet was specifically addressed — although this is not evidenced whatever from the clip — to the practice of invoking judicial philosopy as a grounds for voting against a qualified nominee of integrity and experience. I said in sharp language that that practice was wrong. I contrasted the current practice . . . with what occurred during Ruth Ginsburg's nomination process, as numerous Republicans voted (rightly) to confirm a former ACLU staff lawyer. They disagreed with her positions as a lawyer, but they voted (again, rightly) to confirm her. Why? Because elections, like ideas, have consequences. . . . In the interview, I did indeed suggest, and have suggested elsewhere, that caution and prudence be exercised (Burkean that I am) in shifting/modifying rules (that's the second snippet), but I likewise made clear that the 'filibuster' represents an entirely new use (and misuse) of a venerable tradition. . . .

“[O]ur friends are way off base in assuming that the CBS snippets, as used, represent (a) my views, or (b) what I in fact said.”

Forging is a fun activity, but it also takes time. Remember, it should take longer to forge a document than it took an actual one to be written; that's something whoever hacked on the Rathergate documents on MS Word didn't realize.
