15. Why was the lead story changed?
Something no one seems to mention. The original story to be aired that night was the Niger document story. According to Rather and others approximately two hours before broadcast the lead story was changed to the * NG "fake" documents. Approximately two hours after the NG document story aired a lone blogger appeared to debunk the NG document story. With no additional sources or confirmation all of the MSM aired the "proof" that the documents, and ergo their contents, were fake. This is the same MSM that will not report anything negative about the current administration without multiple sources, video, DNA etc. You will also notice the MSM won't report anything negative about this administration even with absolute proof and multiple sources. This is propaganda at it's best. 1984 is already here. For all of the people who still think reason and talking will work; I feel sorry for you. We're way past that. I'm not talking violence. I'm talking resistance. Going along to get along puts you in the same boat as the 1930 Germans: sure our neighbors disappeared in the night. But that doesn't mean anything sinister is going on. Dan Rather was set up.
