Yes, if he does it right, he could still wind up in Federal prison. Wishful thinking.

Dan Rather, renowned for his unusual expressions and sayings, has led a colorful life. However, one bizarre event really takes the cake.
One night in October 1986, Rather was walking down a Manhattan street when he was punched from behind and thrown to the ground. His assailant kicked and beat him while repeating, "Kenneth, what is the frequency?"
No one could explain the event, and the rumors flew fast and wide. Some speculated the assailant was a KGB agent, while others claimed the attack was the work of a jealous husband. Rather himself couldn't shed any light on the subject.

Rather said that he had never been told what led to his departure from CBS. It was Buckhead and Free Republic!
Long live the NEW media!

"Do I believe the truth of the story? Absolutely," Rather said."
"Do I believe I am insane? Absolutely," Rather said while standing with a loo plunger stuck in his bum.

This is a complete BS story. Dan and suits have discussed. He knows that if he sues, everything, absolutely everything will come into court as public record... and Dan can NOT afford that.
Did he think about it?
Yes.
Are he and his lawyers smart enough to avoid like a hot poker in the eye?
Also yes.

A "Believe it or not" followup...
The guy you beat Rather that day showed up at the Today Show and shot and killed a bystander near Rockefeller(sp) Center in 2001 if I recall correctly.
I'm sure a FReeper will correct the date if I'm wrong.

Typical leftist asshole reaction to a loss or denial of wishes.......go to court.
Idiots like Rather, Kennedy, Kerry, Clinton, Gore, Durbin, Reed, etc, etc, etc......hold positions of TRUST and HONOR for so long -- they believe they have BECOME truth and Omnipotent.

Yes, assuming a rational actor. But since he is barking mad, you never know.

I was going to ping you but figured you get so many pings, you didn't need yet another. LOL
With the crazy lawsuits these days, it's not beyond the realm of possibility that Dan would think about the person who started the entire thing in bringing him down.
