Sorry, but that is so much Horsefeathers. It isn't uncommon for investigative reporters to work for years on stories. New evidence may be a long time coming, and it often comes when you least expect it. CBS still claims they believe their sources.

Listen carefully, I don't want to have to say this again. CBS owns TV stations which are regulated by the government. They can't afford to gamble with those licenses. They CANNOT knowlingly (unlike cable networks) take this kind of chance with the truth.

There is no way that the corporate managers and owners would allow the News Division to carry on some kind of vendetta. There are billions of dollars on the line with these stations. The owned stations make much more money than the network news or entertainment divisions do. And the networks are run by businessmen -- not journalists.

If they reported it, they believe it to be true. If it turns out it isn't, they will have to retract and have a lot of egg on their face.

That may happen or it may not, but to make the kind of charges you do shows more of a bias (or misunderstanding of the network reality) on your part than on CBS's.
