Answering machines are pretty cheap these days

Yesterday's excellent Washington Post article on the Dan Rather-forged memos issue includes this paragraph, toward the end of the story:

"I know Dan Rather is right," Marian Carr Knox, a former secretary in Bush's Guard unit, recalled saying. The neighbor said she should do something about it. So she called a Houston newspaper, Knox told CBS, but did not get a call back. Dallas Morning News reporter Pete Slover soon tracked down Knox and showed her copies of the Killian memos.

(emphasis added)

That's rather embarrassing.

UPDATE: I'm not sure MeMo (second item) should be mocking anyone, considering her paper couldn't return a phone call.
