Rather wont be satisfied until he completely destroys himself
It is tough to choose sides, They are both full of clinton.
Rather knows about “news.” You make it up as you go along. I remember Rather on the air trying to gather a lynch mob to go after General Walker in the Kennedy shooting. He hasn’t changed in all his years. News is what you can get the fools to believe when you pontificate. He learned that from Walter Crankcase.
Yeah, I had to chuckle over this one, too. Maybe Dan-O should show Moonves how to gen up some government documents using MS Word....that could get things rolling.
Ironic that Rather is blaming Couric for their low ratings. I never watched much, but stopped completely after the Rathergate fiasco. Good job, Dan.
Pop some popcorn. This is gonna be great!
Theres nothing like a fool but an old fool.
They could hire ANY slightly attractive woman who speaks and reads reasonably well.
They could pay her $50K a year.
They would double their ratings, solidly.
It’s fun to watch the MSM eating their own (especially SEE-BS).
The MSM “news” is mostly fake and so is, in effect, entertainment.
I want to hear from Connie Chung on whether Rather is a sexist.
Her ridiculous salary would be a good place to start.
Who was the one fired in disgrace?
Hey, Les, just a thought here... the reason you're having trouble reaching a younger audience isn't because you need an anchor that looks like their girlfriend's mother's midlife crisis. It's got something to do with younger people not falling for your insipid BS. You piss on their leg while a smiley face tells them it's really happy rain.
The only time you hear Truth from Leftists is when they’re using it to fight each other. When they get into an internal ‘Ratfight, you hear every last bulls-eye criticism we’ve been firing at each of them for years - but which were routinely denied and ignored by them and the MSM.
Speaking as an over 60, I don't see how the evening news is going to survive anyway.
It's a thing of the past, geared to a world where everybody got home at five, dinner was on the table and you settled in with John Cameron Swayze or the "trusted" talking head of the day giving one what they chose to report, telling you what was important..
Now it's news on demand, cross references galore and you decide what's important. The evening news will eventually head the way of all old media.
If Les Moonves and Dan Rather fell off the stern of a boat and were both drowning, and you could only save one of them, which one would you choose to save?
