who?
Dan Rather’s not bitter. Really. Just ask him. It’s just that anonymous partisans destroyed him with lies. Ping to Today show list.
Easily forgotten.
"Ahh, but the strawberries that’s… that’s where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with… geometric logic… that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist."
Go cut a fart and yell at some kids about your lawn you irrelevant pile of commie dog sh&%!
I think he really believes himself. His arrogance forbids him from recognizing the obvious: that the documents were crude forgeries.
I thank the geeks of the internet who showed me that my suspicians that Rather was a below average IQ dork who couldn’t do anything except read news was true.
Thanks Drudge.
As for you, Rather, shove it up your smelly Obama.
Dan “We [the MSM] determine whats news and whats not!” Rather
He wanted to believe a lie. A man in his position cannot afford such luxuries. His fall is entirely his own making. Efforts to share blame reveal an unrepentant heart.
What’s the frequency, Kenneth? etc.etc.etc.
Why can’t these nasty bitter communist buzzards like Carter & Rather just shut their sickening yaps and fade away into obscurity and enjoy the twilight of their lives with the ones they love?
And bees.... good God man haven't you noticed? There are no more bees. Or butterflies.
Poor Dan. After being in the limelight for so long, the dark days of irrelevancy seem to be taking their toll.
Dan...”Courage.”
The paranoids are still trying to bring him down!
Well, that's partially true. The lies from the "anonymous" partisans were the forged Texas Air National Guard memos. The problem was that Rather ran with the lies rather than investigating them. Back in the pre-Internet days he could have gotten away with it, but knowledgeable people recognized that the fonts and formats weren't proper for military memos of the time but instead matched with the default Microsoft Word settings, even down to the peculiarities of when the "th" would be superscripted, and were able to publicize those flaws before that night was over.
Just imagine how different this story would have been if Rather had just read from the alleged memos with some Chyron graphics of the "relevant" parts of the text over a background of some blurry, low-res pages on the screen. But CBS posted scans of the memos for everyone to look at and analyze. Hopefully news reports will move more in that direction of reporting the news but posting the full supporting information and raw videos immediately. Instead I expect that they will learn the wrong lesson and stop releasing the proof and leave the two minute news report to stand on its own to hide the trail of evidence of their lies and half-truths.
