tells me how they would run a story on Auschwitz, if they were unable to get a quote from Goebbels, because that is exactly what Weiss is saying.

So, come on CBS. Suppose you had an indepepth, investigative report about what was happening at Auschwitz, but the Hitler regime failed to respond to you for "comment". Would you cover up that Nazi atrocity?

Wait!!! Don't answer that while the current "news director" is still in charge, BECAUSE WE KNOW WHAT THE FUCKING ANSWER WILL BE
