Truth is a great title for this biopic AKA Pravda.

[USNBandit]

The net results was single sourcing from a whacko, simply because it fit their desired narrative.

[Safetgiver]

But I say that as objectively as I can,” he said.......As objectively as you reported the news?

[IronJack]

A movie made by liberals, starring a documented liberal, about a liberal idol.

And it dares contain the word "Truth?????"

[Rock N Jones]

Hollywood, Robert Redford, Dan Rather? Three peas in a cesspool!
George Bush hasn’t been President for years past, lest we forget! Barack Hussein has been and is, and is means is! CBS canned Dan, now his mug has surfaced on a TV.com show that nobody watches!

[Oberon]

Rather never appeared to understand that, to anyone with experience in desktop publishing, his “evidence” was a dead giveaway. His critics had him cold, and I mean cold. No question that his memos were faked; they didn’t even take the trouble to do a credible job of forgery.

To Proglodytes, like the Red Queen, words mean only what they wish them to, nothing more, nothing less.

[miss marmelstein]

Maybe they have a Jim-like character presented as Snidley Whiplash! Buckhead as a pajama-boy!

[Mercat]

I’ll watch for that if I’m forced to see the movie. If it’s free on Amazon Prime I might watch it.

[Cen-Tejas]

Thanks for giving me the opening to make a point parallel to yours. Namely, Robert Redford is the purest of the pure liberals. To paraphrase Chrus Rock on one of his hilarious statements “truth is Kryptonite to a Liberal”.

If Rather says it’s true and Redford says it’s true that means it ain’t!

[Paladin2]

Shoulda left off the “up” part.

[Sontagged]

Freepers know by now that it was Karl Rove who typed up the phony piece of paper to purposely obfuscate the problem of Bush being AWOL — while running against a vet for president?

Not sure what Laeta K and Vanderbilt wrote in Truth — I’m sure it’s slammed very left wing — but we were conned by Rove on that one.

It worked. After the Rathergate thing, no one cared about the truth of the matter... Bush’s military bona fides.

[Lazamataz]

If you're not mentioned, you should sue.

Seriously.

[evilC]

Exactly. I was just going to post the catchphrase: See BS, I'd Ra^ther not.

[moovova]

I wanted to post a picture of a maggot-invested wound...but I didn’t want to defame the maggots.

[moovova]

invested = infested

[outofsalt]

I can’t wait for the Redford docudrama on Mother Hillary!
I hear they are using the working title, “Charity”

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks Lonesome in Massachussets.

[Henry Hnyellar]

The correct spelling is Liar.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Du hast recht.
