Independent document examiner Sandra Ramsey Lines (search) said the memos looked like they had been produced on a computer using Microsoft Word software, which wasn’t available when the documents were supposedly written in 1972 and 1973.

Microsoft Word automatically inserts superscripts in the same style as the two on the memos obtained by CBS, she said.
