It's Occam's Razor - the simplest explanation is likely to the true one. Some elaborate conspiracy by multiple, independent news sources in with Somali drug dealers, versus a guy who routinely lies about his misdeeds doing yet one more stupid thing. Hmm...

I'm looking at the burden of proof to completely destroy someones personal and professional life here.
I don't believe that Occum's razor applies in all situations. I believe that Occum's razor only applies in the case of actual evidence and not hearsay.
I'm not defending Ford necessarily, I am entirely skepical about some of the things in the process that I've outlined above.
Show me the tape and I'll accept the results
