You know what? This document was not created in 1973. Maybe it's a transcription, but that's Times New Roman, and those are curly apostrophes, and there's just no way. Also, it's a lousy CYA memo, since it's just claims with no backing evidence.

CBS needs to provide an evidence trail for those memos, or give up on their authenticity.

There's a big post over at Daily Kos that beats the hell out of the forgery argument. Or at least many of the "it must be a forgery because XYZ" arguments. Just FYI.

A lot of the "it must be a forgery because XYZ" arguments /really/ suck. The superscript argument is dumb. The "Times Roman wasn't invented then" argument is dumb.

My single biggest reason for thinking it's a forgery is the congruence of line endings. I'm going to actually buy Bembo and type out the document to do a comparison tonight.
