CNN rewrites history

Not for the first time, of course, as those of us who remember the phony-balony Vietnam Vet-bashing "Tailwind" story on CNN know full well.

Still, this is pretty flagrant assault on the truth. When I say truth I don't mean to endorse what Bill Maher said; the reality is that Maher said it on CNN, and Minitrue--oops, I mean CNN--shouldn't seek to vaporize that reality. It would be OK if they simply said "objectionable material removed," but instead, CNN just got all Orwellian on the record.

Update: Here's The New York Post's "Page Six" on the Maher story.
