Just announced on the Chris Baker talk show:

Ken Charles, the Station Manager for 950KPRC in Houston (the largest talk station in Houston) just sent the CBS News VP all his nasty e-mails and told them that CBS will either fire Dan Rather by Monday and come completely clean on the matter or he will take CBS News off the air of his radio stations (he manages two of the largest in Houston).

He took Dan Rather's 4pm top of the hour brodcast off effective immediately and replaced it with Fox news.

He said he will find a way to cancel the CBS contract if they do not resolve this in a manner that retains their credibility as a news source.

Here here! and if other local affiliates don't do likewise their sponsors and local advertisers should be prevented from doing business - by whatever legal means possible - to stop them from propping up this LYING, FRAUDULENT regime known as CBS

Isn't Houston where Rather started his CBS career? How delicious is that?
