I'm sure his broadcasts will be fake but accurate.

What is it with these media types? Why can't they just grow old and retire? What's Mike Wallace? -- 90 years old or something?

His upcoming, hour long program is about how fighting in the war is destroying soldiers physically and emotionally. Does that sound familiar?

Pathetic. And he still denies the 60 Minutes II report that was his downfall was based on faked documents.

The terminal megalomania that these liberal trash suffer from is quite obvious. The Clintons suffer from the same thing, laced with narcissim.

High definition TV? Doesn't that mean it will be easier than ever to tell what font Rather is misusing? Maybe he should have gone to low def TV.

Isn't Dan Rather dead?
Or was it Peter Jennings?
Either way, I won't be wasting my time listening to his dribble.

If a TV show is aired and no one watches it, was it ever really broadcast? I suspect it's like the falling tree that no one hears...

HDNet is so broke that they're forced to use old typewriters for correspondence.

Shouldn't the show be called "Dan Rather Distorts" ?
To: WestVirginiaRebel
Only something like 5% of American households have an HD TV.Of that 5%,I'd guess that no more than half have access to HDNet (my cable system doesn't carry it,for example).
Soooo...I'd say that Blather will finally get the ratings that he deserves.

I have 4 HD TV's. My cable system doesn't carry HDNet either. I sent an email to Mark Cuban a couple of months back saying I wouldn't watch if I could. He wrote:
