"There is no way that Rather didn't know the memo's were fake. Why else keep promoting them in the face of overwhelming evidence that the are forged."
I think Rather did not know the memos were fake initially. If he had doubts, he figured that he had reasonable backup for his opinion.
Now that they are clearly fakes... he needs to acknowledge that.

"Oreilly used to do that. See his first book. But
recently...he has become about Oreilly....and nothing else."
I agree. I almost can't stand to listen to OR's radio show on the way home from work.
O Reilly is drinking kool-aide or he is positioning himself to be the next anchor at CBS or both (to be part of CBS you must drink the kool-aide).
He is so easy on Dan and CBS, it is sickening
Think how many people discovered FR through Drudge, now think how many will discover FR through the MSM.
Ye Gods, the Moscow Gazzette weighed in on the side of truth. Wonders never cease.... Wonder how they benefit.
"Its hitting them bad. Each day there (sic) newspapers get pecked apart by groups and individuals on the internet."
This is the reason that the Washington Post and LATimes et al had to stop FR from using their printed stuff. They were being picked apart to such a degree that their credibility was waining at an alarming rate. They kept losing subscribers (and so should all their spin-offs).
They have seen the light in the past. They knew they had to "board" the "right" bus this time!
LMAO........well said; I've thought the same thing many times. :)
However.......................it's kinda neat that the morons of Big Media HAVE to condescend and admit that we loners in pj's (ahem) whupped their butts in getting this story ripped apart. That...that, you just gotta love. :) Besides, call it "advertising". The last time we saw such a surge in membership was during the Lewinsky/Clinton impeachment era.
This is great, they are really piling on.
