Did you think I was done with the forged memos scandal? I have posts and columns and articles in the works as we speak. I’m going to trumpet the power of the blogosphere for years to come!
In the meantime, see Michelle Malkin’s latest column.
Dan Rather, Professional Journalist, and CBS News, Professional News Network, want us to keep believing that they are the ordained purveyors of truth. They are the mature and responsible mavens of media ethics. They are the information gatekeepers with unparalleled judgment, dedicated to the high principles of The Craft of Journalism, unwavering in their crusade for the public interest….With a click of the mouse and easy-to-use Web log software, Internet-savvy citizens across America and around the world are relentlessly unmasking the frauds of snob journalism as never before. The wall between the self-anointed press protectorate and the unwashed masses has crumbled.
Rather and The Suits face crushing evidence that CBS relied on bogus military documents in a recent “60 Minutes II” hit piece challenging President Bush’s National Guard service. Questions about the documents’ authenticity were first raised last week on the indispensible conservative Internet forum, FreeRepublic.com, then amplified and supplemented by the intrepid independent bloggers of Powerline, Little Green Footballs, INDC Journal and Allahpundit.
Good stuff. I wished I’d played a bigger part, though.

Also, Dean says CBS will offer a statement about the memos at noon today.
JustOneMinute has more on High Noon.
Update: Pressthink has a message for the legacy media.
Update II: Still waiting for CBS’s statement, which had been pushed back from noon to 3:30 p.m. EDT. Idler Yet makes a prediction.
