Hmm, historically speaking in modern times JFK was alternatively a socialist, communist, bigamist (yes there was that charge too), all at the same time.  In fact many past presidents were accused of having hidden political leanings apart from the main party.  So these type of charges are nothing new.  What has changed however is this thing we call an Internet where information is sent across the globe in a flash without being vetted.  In the past responsible news organizations would fact check a story before it went over the wires or airways.  Now that power is in the hands of millions of individuals whom decide whether a story has any significance or not based upon their particular world view without the benefit of un-biased research. Why anyone would want the presidency in today's political and technological age is beyond me.  As JFK might say, it was a good idea at the time. 4951

Again, note the term "responsible".  Once CBS determined that the information was not fully vetted properly Rather was out.  But there is no such consequence for millions of Internet bloggers. 4951
