"Okay, guys this is the strategy. If we let our guy spend too much time with the media, you know, doing interviews and answering questions, they're going to figure out he's a bonehead. From now on we only go with scripted photo-ops and sound bites from major speeches. If that doesn't work we've also got ourselves a little insurance. I've called in a few favors with some people at the networks and they've received some bogus stuff. They're going to start throwing it against the wall and see if any of it sticks. At the very least it will muddy the water and keep this campaign from getting into any real issues. Hopefully enough of this crap will stick to that sob Bush and it will cost him enough votes to help us squeak by."

*not really but if CBS can get away with it so can I.
This article, Is it a Hoax? ought to give any reasonable person enough information to judge for themselves. If that isn't enough then, The Sixty-First Minute should help.
It makes me wonder, is Kerry really that bad of a candidate that he needs CBS, NBC, et al. throwing around baseless accusations?
