Rather’s “What Unites Us” will be published Nov. 7 by Algonquin Books, the publisher told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The book is a collection of essays about topics ranging from civil rights to schools and libraries and what it means to be an American.

Dan Rather lacks the shame gene.

Strangely, this book will only be available for purchase at your local Kinkos outlet.

The actions are what demonstrates the “deep down” person, not contrived words. His “patriotism” is not towards the USA, which is supposed to stand for truth.

“Dan Rather, the former CBS anchor who has become a prominent voice against President Donald Trump, is working on a book about patriotism.”

Is there anyone stupid enough to believe that the 85 year old Rather is actually writing this book himself?

Some partisan Democrat Party hack is writing it. It will not be about patriotism. It will simply be leftist, America hating propaganda.

That book will have to be ghost-written by someone who knows the subject matter...

This guy is a liar. Everyone said he was a jerk. And he is a pompous ass. There is no reason to listen to, or support this guy.

“Kenneth” should write the forward to the book.

A comic book which requires a secret decoder ring.

“As I ran back to the local CBS affiliate in Dallas to file my report, I dodged Oswald’s sniper fire, and heard the roar of B-52 bombers overhead as they dropped their lethal ordinance on the Texas School Book Depository.

All the while the sound of Jackie’s plaintiff cries echoed in my ears.”
