As journalists.

15. Well, maybe not
60 Minutes had that story on the "missing" National Guard documents on Stupidhead that they were eventually persuaded were "forged," even though nobody argued with their content. To air that story, they spiked another story that was better sourced and potentially more damaging to Stupidhead. CBS then announced that they would withhold the spiked story because they didn't want to air something that might affect the election outcome (!).

Will 60 Minutes go in-depth on the missing explosives? Don't bet on it. Their spines are made of overcooked spaghetti, and they will fold faster than Superman on laundry day when the pressure is brought to bear.

5. I hope every media outlet plays this story OVER and OVER and OVER.
This administration is a total and complete failure.

Chickenhawks cannot plan an effective war strategy. It makes me ill to think about how many innocent people (soldiers and Iraqis) we've lost for a lie.

9. ABC covering it too.

14. They SHOULD lead with this story
Most of all the problems we are having in Iraq today is because the Iraqis have a huge supply of explosives. When the Iraqis started to use rockets, the media should have been screaming from the rafters.

17. All 3 major networks led with the story.
The second story on ABC and NBC was Kerry/Clinton. I don't know about CBS.

18. CBS...
their coverage has been great lately, hitting BushCo hard. Though I'd love to see that 60 minutes story run, there's been a lot of bad news directed squarely at the * camp.
