Hey!
(We've got a longer, more up-to-date list going now.)
It's up to 80+ errors and fraulaent points.
Constant
Bull
Sh*t
They are the National Enquirer on the boob tube.
Short Answer: Yes.
in short, yes. he will get away with airing forged documents and colluding with the kerry campaign.
sad.
can you imagine if britt hume had ran a forged document on Fox?
Ditto here.
The same thing will happen to Dan as happened to the guy that took all the docs from the National Archive in his pants.
In a few days it will be completely forgotten.
Can you provide a link? My bit was just an op/ed, but I'd love to see more details!
By the way, click on the link I provided for the original article. You'll see why it's better to see the "special" formatting that couldn't be transferred to this site...
He didn't get away with it at all. He might still be there but you know that most of the viewers see him as willing to fabricate a story to harm the president.
You left the word "Again" out of the headline.
Dan Rather is largely responsible, as Saigon bureau chief, for the American people forming the opinion that the Tet Offensive was a great victory for the Viet Cong/Army of North Vietnam when, in fact, it all but broke their backs. Rather has long been a merchant of fraud and deceit.
I find it interesting that he refuses to address the authenticity of documents he claims are authentic but for which he offers no proof -- because he has none -- and he refuses to explain how CBS (and other MSM outlets) received copies of the documents.
We ought to have people stand outside CBS and whenever he appears shout, "What's the frequency?"
I don't watch CBS, but do they have windows on the set that the public can see/be seen? Like Fox does?
Yes, Dan Rather will get away with his cute little stunt, but CBS and he are mortally wounded. He and CBS have no creditablilty whatsoever in the minds of millions of Americans. GW Bush will handily defeat John Kerry, and go on to secure USA freedom and safety from Muslim terrorists unfettered by the "traitor" Democrat Party. As GW Bush becomes a "lame duck" re-elected President, he will go forward unhampered or unimpeded by these treasonous Democrats. In the end the MSM loses bit time, with CBS the biggest loser of them all. If CBS had any smarts they would fire Dan Rather today!!!
It may seem crazy, but I think this will spell the end for Dan.
The libs may love him, but there are still moderate/undecided voter types who hate this type of dishonesty.
This is the on-going summary of the factual erros and forgery evidence.

CBS is working from its institutional liberalism.
Walter Cronkite was able to spin the Tet Offensive into a defeat. Rather thought he could do the same thing with these obvious forgeries and have this report be the cornerstone of his "legacy" as the man who turned the Kampaign for Kerry.
Rather is just plain ignorant and this just prooves the left is living in a 9/10 delusion. FR has debunked political BS within hours and with far more reliable references.
Much superior to Rather's near tearful "because I said so."
Bump for later reading...
