Interesting points from the "Weekly Standard"

I pulled this from

--------------------------

There are several steps CBS could take to clarify the situation [about the forged documents].

(1) Obtain the original memos. CBS based its reporting on photocopies. If CBS can produce the original memos, both the paper and the ink can be accurately dated. And the paper can be checked for the indentations made by a typewriter.

(2) Produce other documents written by Killian around the same time that have the same characteristics as the documents in question.

(3) Find any typewriter from the early 1970s capable of producing replicas of the Killian memos. Several experts have already recreated the memos using Microsoft Word. Surely if the documents are authentic, somewhere there is a typewriter that can reproduce them.

If CBS can't do this within a few days then it is safe to assume that CBS lied and the documents are forged. Then our attention should shift towards finding the source of forged documents.
