The Leftists would get away with it if it wasn't for the new media.
That's right. They got away with it for years. During the VN War, Cronkite lied in his teeth night after night and was never called on it, because the old media completely controlled the microphone. Dan Rather thinks he can still get away with it. But he just got another reminder that times have changed. I doubt he'll learn much from this. Creeps like him believe they have a right to defraud the public any time they want.
