Final Update: So I spent some time tonight reviewing the end of the Killian scandal and looking into CBS’s report myself. My conclusion, for what little it’s worth, is that Goodall’s article (which I summarized in the post) was misleading, if not wrong. Anyway, my original piece follows the jump, so you can read it there. Goodall’s analysis is interesting as a review of CBS’s report itself, but not reliable as a guide to the controversy over the documents.
