OK CBS - It's time to clean up the trash, and quit the bias reporting, that (apparently) has become your standards....... Go to CBS.COM and send this message: If your company is truly interested in impartial news reporting then prove it to us by giving us a new face for your anchor. It's time for a change and you will show us where you stand, either you change anchors or we change channels, it's elementary.

It has now become time for us to revolt against the reporting of untruths and faulty news. The freepers have power and it is now time to make a stand and right a wrong. (let our voice be heard and send this to your friends and ask them to do the same. ""I wouldn't mind shutting down their e-mail due to overload.""

Rather is a propagandist for the DNC, and so is CBS.

I stopped watching pretty much everything on CBSNBCABCMSNBCCNN a few years back now. Also, thanks to Freepers posting advertiser info, I also contact each one letting them know they are wasting their money on ads and losing my money since I no longer purchase their products.

Oh I don't know.

It's kind of entertaining to watch CBS f'up repeatedly.

Dan Rather looks so comical reporting this

fiction with howls of derisive laughter being directed back at him.

CBS should be treated like one of those old

ships that are far beyond repair.

Tow it out to sea and sink for an artificial reef.

After that, run a test pattern where CBS used to be.

Why not just change the channel?

Who still watches CBS for news? Will the last person to leave the room, please turn off the lights?

BTW, money is the only language that will be heard. Better to contact ad sponsors and tell them they are wasting their money on ads nobody will see, at least during the evening news broadcast time slot.

A new face at CBS is not enough to convince me to watch. If they really want to shake the newsroom up, they should hire a conservative (maybe Rush Limbaugh) to replace Dan Rather.

Suggestion to CBS, you are officially done. As lone as Dan Rather continues in his current position you have little to no credibility and you will continue to lose viewers at a rapid rate. However, if you were to pull your head out of your New York-centric backsides you would note that little old Fox News has been the hottest thing in News for a few years now. Steal away Brit Hume and let him replace Rather. You would beat NBC and ABC night in and night out if you do so and regain some badly needed credibility. You would be the only one of the "Big 3" to offer something truly unique, fair and balanced news coverage. So while the other two split up the liberal 30% of the country you can have the rest. Think about it, one of the three is going to go this direction and capatalize on it, why not be the one to do so.

They should also smack the back of his head as he walks out the door with his belongings.

If CBS knew what was good for it, it would fire Dan Rather and offer a full mea culpa regarding its role in the Killian military document forgeries.

It's time for real coverage of how the news is made. Here's some questions for CBS:

How large is Rather's staff? Does he take "research" from the DNC or their spin-off fronts?

Is his job to investigate, or to read though the stuff that's handed to him?

If he's "fed" the "news" is there an inherent bias to keep his handlers in power?

Is there a conflict of interest when the people who feed you the "news" are out of power and your take isn't as good? Is there an incentive to get "your guys" back in?

Does Rather have a dog in this fight? If the insiders who give him the "good stuff" are out of power, how "good" is the "stuff"? Rather still shills for dems, but people don't care as much because dems don't call the game. And Rather doesn't have insider Republicans to do his job for him....

If the DNC is doing Rather's work for him and for CBS, is CBS being paid by the DNC?

What is the is the coin of the realm for a one-sided "bribe" in the news field?

CBSNEWS: If airing forged documents to discredit a sitting president during a wartime election year is not *TOO*LOW* (even for your standards) then what is?
DAN RATHER MUST GO

Dan Rather must resign. If he won't resign, CBS must fire him.
