Who: President of CBS News

What: Heward fired 3 CBS executives and 1 producer for attempting to report on the truth about President Bush’s pitiful National Guard service record.

Detail: "We established to our satisfaction that the memos were accurate or we would not have put them on television." This is what Heward said initially about the infamous 60-minuites broadcast on October 2004. Mary Mapes was the fall-girl producer in all this. She said Heward was the one who decided to air the story when it did, not her. Afraid of loosing his seat at the Bush Regime beggars table, Heward hired an "Independent Panel" to investigate the incident (more on them next). When they ripped into Mapes in their report, Heward dropped her like a hot potato (potatoe?).

Part of Mapes’ report was that current Bush Aid, Dan Bartlett, had altered papers about Bush’s National Guard service. The major allegation by the report was that the Bush service documents Mapes used were forgeries. The "Independent Panel" and Dan Bartlett has never declared the documents to be forgeries or legitimate. After being bullied into making a spectacle of CBS through the firings, Heward was spotted at the White House on January 2 kissing up to Bartlett and his secretary. Compromising your real values for politics - that is whoring.
