It may be in poor taste to comment on my own original post, but even when I was watching the piece last night it struck me as bogus and a bit "off."

Then when I went online and read the more objective reporting on the issue I was utterly appalled by the degree of puffery and propagand in which CBS was engaged. They made up absolute nonsense in order to cover up the actual nature of the story, deliberately concealing the role of the US government. And to what purpose? Did they really think that the role of the NSA was not going to be at the front of this release by Kaspersky?

It is not just dishonesty and propagandizing, it is mind boggling stupidity.
