"I denied that I turned him down before and after I admitted that I turned him down."
Stay tuned.
Even if were in Dan Rather's shoes and came upon info that an ex-President I just interviewed had lied about something this big, I would definitely run with the story because it is a big deal and a big feather in the cap...even if the President was a person I liked.
We will see if Dan has any integrity I guess.
