3. From a Photo Analysis friend of mine
While he goes into a couple things, the biggest is the "th" on the CBS doc being above the line..... computer ones are within the line.

4. The superscript is interesting
but if you print out the Word document (instead of just taking a screen shot), the th rises up to about the spot that it is shown on the CYA memo.

6. Besides that, the Times Roman gimmick they keep trying to pull is idiotic.
I've worked as a grpahic designer for 12 years and it is one of the oldest fonts out there, not to mention, there are hundreds of Serif fonts that look similar to Times that have been in use for many, many years. When I was in college, we had a project where we had to set type for print, letter by letter by hand. One of the fonts used was Roman Times. And they haven't been setting type by hand for quite a while.

5. I have a theory
The documents WERE typed on a typewriter, but in a way that followed the default settings of Microsoft Word.
