Two little
: CBS is doing as little as possible with its Rathergate commission: It appointed only a two-person commission and though they are respected — former AP head Louis Boccardi and former PA Gov. Dick Thornburgh — they aren’t TV and they don’t represent the various constituencies and thus viewpoints I think are important. But far, far worse: CBS is charging them only to look into how the forged docs got onto the air, nothing after, nothing more. Big mistake. Muffed opportunity. Frightened and frightening lack of vision.
My view of what they should have done here. CBS’ announcement here. See Ernie Miller’s parallel reaction here.
