There is a new statement from CBS News, contained in a story on its website.

The relevant portion of the story is as follows:

“This report was not based solely on recovered documents, but rather on a

preponderance of evidence, including documents that were provided by

unimpeachable sources, interviews with former Texas National Guard officials

and individuals who worked closely back in the early 1970s with Colonel

Jerry Killian and were well acquainted with his procedures, his character

and his thinking,” the statement read.

“In addition, the documents are backed up not only by independent

handwriting and forensic document experts but by sources familiar with their

content,” the statement continued. “Contrary to some rumors, no internal

investigation is underway at CBS News nor is one planned.”
