Muzzle Mapes Please......


The documents were fakes, and everyone knows it. So please crawl back under your rock Mary. But noooo she is out hocking her book "Truth and Duty". Great title don't ya think from someone who has no idea of either the truth or duty! An example below is provided:

On Good Morning America during an interview with Brian Ross, he begins by asking her if she still thinks the story is true – and her answer is:

MAPES: The story? Absolutely.

ROSS: This seems remarkable to me that you would sit here now and say you still find that story to be up to your standards.

MAPES: I'm perfectly willing to believe those documents are forgeries if there's proof that I haven't seen.

ROSS: But isn't it the other way around? Don't you have to prove they're authentic?

MAPES: Well, I think that's what critics of the story would say. I know more now than I did then, and I think -- I think -- they have not been proved to be false yet.

ROSS: Have they proved to be authentic, though? Isn't that really what journalists do?

MAPES: No, I don't think that's the standard.
