Reply #2: What effect does claiming fake have....?

[LeftHander]

We have seen this time and time again from Bush and GOP they simply baldface lie right to everyone. So when you lie you have more to gain by the immediate media effects of the lie rather than the actual repercussion of the disclosure of the lie months later.

So this company can claim it to be a "fake" it will be in all the papers and TV and by the time they find out the truth...the benfits of the lie will already have been reaped. Perfectly sound defensive strategy...there is no penalty for lying to the media and to the American people so it seems.

Next it will be character assasination of the whistle blower as he is forced to respond. Supervisors will claim he was "unstable" and was considered a "loner" then a "disgruntled employee" and finally a law suit will be filed and gag order issued by our "activist" judges upon the man. His credibility will be attack and made up dirt spread around by the like of Rush Limbaugh and the rest of the media "Liar Channel".
