Hugh Hewitt really is an eternal optimist. Earlier this week he suggested that CBS release drafts of the Rathergate report to bloggers for pre-publication comment. There's a better chance of Aaron Carter shacking up with Liza Minnelli.
In fact, nothing about CBS's behavior to date in this incident suggests that they will take the high road with the report, but much suggests that they might go the low road.
So, I'm just asking: What happens if CBS releases the report, and fires some staff, but the staff's severance comes with non-disclosure agreements? Is that a tenable position for CBS?

what happens if the investigation reveals that the documents are, in fact, genuine?
Just as a hypothetical, lets assume that Thornburgh & Co. actually track down "Lucy Ramirez", and she has the originals, and upon analysis by forensic experts it turns out that they are real?
Or better yet, lets assume that the documents are fakes, but that CBS tracks down "Lucy Ramirez" and finds out that she was working for Karl Rove and company?
What if Thornburgh et al compare the verification processed used by 60 Minutes in its reporting to that of Fox in its reporting, and finds that even though 60 Minutes process was flawed in this particular instance, FoxNews has consistently spread far more disinformation over the last year?
It sounds to me like you have already prejudged the Thornburgh report without considering any of the evidence that it will be presenting---and that regardless of the evidence, if its conclusions don't fit your preconceptions the report will be a whitewash.
Suppose p.lukasiak lost the tin foil hat?
These accusations are completely off-base. Everyone knows that Halliburton was behind it.
Get the conspiracy theory straight.
And foil is on line five.
