Why Did Dick Thornburgh Lie?

Isnít Roger Simon aware of the holocaust deniers? What about Michael Foucault, Jacques Derrida, and the whole postmodernist school of thought? The philosophical premise of radical skepticism is highly seductive when one wants to ignore reality. Nothing in this world is absolutely provable. Instead, we opt for reasonable certitude—if we wish to remain sane. Can I absolutely prove that all human beings die? No, but the evidence overwhelming indicates that this is so. The same holds true for the forged CBS documents.

Dick Thornburg is placed in an awkward predicament. He therefore momentarily adopts a radical skeptical perspective to reject the undeniable proof that these documents are forged. Why is this so important? Once again, I suspect that CBS might be in jeopardy of loosing its broadcasting license. This is a public privilege approved by the federal government. A TV network is suppose to remain politically neutral. And yet, numerous CBS employees obviously tried to destroy a sitting president. I find it somewhat bizarre that virtually nobody else is addressing this issue. Am I getting too carried away with my FCC theory?
