WIll CBS out the source now?  Is there an obligation to protect a source who, quite frankly, screwed you?  Who will fall on their sword at CBS?  Or will they try and create a new story by blaming the Kerry camp somehow?

I be tthe producer falls on her sword and Rather retires within a year.

They did, by interviewing Burkett over the weekend.  

"Burkett, a retired National Guard lieutenant colonel, also admits that he deliberately misled the CBS News producer working on the report, giving her a false account of the documents' origins to protect a promise of confidentiality to the actual source," network spokeswoman Kelli Edwards said in the statement.
