Reply #101: It could be another 'Rathergate' plant. [View All]

The info that Rather had was true, but he was fed documentation that was forged. When the forgery came to lite it poisoned the info, and Rather was humiliated and dismissed. But the info remains true.

This 'spider-hole' story always sounded bogus to me. Saddam's sons fought to the death in a well defended house in a firefight that took hours. But Saddam was abandoned and hiding in a hole in the ground? Rally.

If this guy planting the story is bogus, and easily proved to be bogus, the result is that people will say the 'spider-hole' story must be true. Real logic doesn't say so, but this guy being a fraud will poison the story.

Makes me wonder what they're really trying to hide.
