Reply #74: It's Easier Than That

[ProfessorGAC]

You go on national TV, and say "They're lying. It's a politically motivated lie, that diminishes the military, since they believe the military is so incompetent that they pass out medals to people who didn't deserve them! I challenge them to prove a single word of what they say! If they can't prove it, they should shut up!" But, he absolutely needed to call them liars. The word needed to be used.

The situation would have been defused in minutes, not hours.
