DEBUNKING "FORGERYGATE"

From Seattle journalist David Neiwert's blog Orcinus, courtesy of Eschaton:

It's pretty funny, really, how right-wing bloggers are serially breaking their arms patting themselves on the back for having exposed "Forgerygate." Actually, all they've really managed to prove is P.T. Barnum's famous adage, perhaps recast as "There's a blogger born every minute."

Have any bloggers actually yet proven definitively that the CBS documents are fake?

Well, no. All they've been able to produce so far is a great deal of speculation, much of it later proven to be entirely without substance.

Times New Roman didn't exist in 1972? It existed in 1931.

You can create a nearly identical copy with MS Word? Perhaps that's because MS Word was designed to replicate an IBM typewriter.

As I've said before this whole scandal thing is pretty weird especially because the main debunker of these "smoking gun" documents says that the content of the documents are true even though the documents themselves are fake.

To which I say, "Huh?"
