can you say "witch-hunt"?

From AOLnews :

CBS Fires Four Staffers Over Bush Story
'Myopic Zeal' Cited by Independent Panel

NEW YORK (Jan. 10) - Four CBS News staffers were fired Monday following the release of an independent investigation that said a ''myopic zeal'' led to a ''60 Minutes Wednesday'' story about President Bush's military service that relied on allegedly forged documents.


So, Dan Rather is humiliated and 4 more staffers are fired all over a memo that still has not been proven to be forged (not much reporting on this interesting fact!) and that simply reinforces information that we already know to be true.
Wouldn't it be nice if this amount of accountability applied to those who lied so frequently and outrageously about Kerry?!
Damn that liberal media!!!
