Rather Ambushed at Dallas Airport; Anchor Bashes Fox September 18, 2004 15:34:06 EDT Fox News has reported that Dan Rather received the "60 Minutes treatment" when he was confronted by a local Dallas TV reporter.
Rather has flown to Dallas apparently to help his CBS people in Dallas get their stories straight and bolster their defense. More and more media organizations are picking apart Rather's claims, as more is uncovered about the Texas Democrats who seem to have originated the story.
The reporter, from the local Fox affiliate, asked Rather if he felt he was duped. Rather shot back, "Do you feel like you were duped -- working for Fox like you do?"

If PBS can have totebags, so can the "Pajama People".

I seem to remember some other people down in Texas getting into some problems over their lack of honesty.
Hmmm, who could that have been?

"The "interview/ambush" was much ado about nothing."
Shouldn't be, but it was nice to see him on the other end for a change. :-)

I think Dan is in need of some "Anger Management" to help him with his "Issues". :-)

What's the Fox affiliate, Kenneth?
Couldn't have happened to a nicer stooge.

It must really suck to be Dan Rather right now.
A Journalist's worse nightmare - becoming the story.
Rather- Finis.

Dan Rather is not an honest person.
Au contraire. From his own lips, you can be a honest man while lying your butt off.

Wasn't Dan Rather one of the ones responsible for causing the mess in Florida last election by calling it prematurely?

Were there possibly any Freepers on the scene that may have gotten a good picture of Blather getting hit over the head with bunny slippers? I sure would appreciate saving it to my picture gallery.
To: Brad's Gramma
I am sure that Rush, in his all-knowing, all-seeing way of prepping for the show, pops into FR now and again. If not him, then someone working for him. He has a lot of elves out there doing research for him. He is a busy man, you know.

As soon as I figure out this video editing thing, I've got some boffo footage (from this and the Anti-war marches).
You would not believe some of the things I've seen over the past 3 years.

Saw the exchange on Fox. Dan Rather was his usual pompous arrogant self. He does NOT see himself as TOAST like the rest of the world sees him. Liberals: self-destructive and self- delusional. (Self-deceived to use a Biblical term for pharisees)

Rather shot back, "Do you feel like you were duped -- working for Fox like you do?" Wow. What a clever comeback.
I'm sure Dan the dupe would love to have some company about now.

So he is in TEXAS to put together a defense. More lies and forged, fake testimony.
