Dan Rather's CBS Exit and the Killian Documents
The hosts recount the 2004 scandal involving Dan Rather and forged documents regarding George W. Bush's National Guard service. They explain how the "superscript TH" typography in the memos proved they were created in Microsoft Word rather than a 1970s typewriter. This event led to Rather's departure from CBS and his subsequent move to HDNet.
