What did Dan Rather know, and when did he know it?
There must be a lot of other reasons the network wanted him out. There had to be. The #MeToo Locomotive is serving as a tidy excuse for a lot of firings nowadays. A lot of settling of old scores and generational changing of the guard is coming down.
Isn’t 60 Minutes an “Intelligence Outlet?” Maybe they thought they had ‘protection’... LOL bye bye abusers...
He knows nothing and never did..................
I don’t doubt any of the women’s stories, but I have seen some liars first hand..................
Jury may still be out.
Some of this may be nothing more than Cost Cutting Measures, thinly disguised as ‘righteous fury’. Networks often have a hard time snipping the more aged, MOST EXPENSIVE employees off the tree without provoking an age discrimination lawsuit or smear campaign.

“The story is true.”
“Fake but accurate.”
LOL
Why should networks be any different than real companies?
A Company I used to work for got bought by another company and they came in and fired the entire management, some who were near retirement and had started the company decades ago...............
He’s got a show on cable interviewing old rockers.....................

Still, if a joke or hug gone wrong is called “groping” and used to end a career for a man, any man, that argument should be made in public. This #metoo stuff has gotten so out of hand that it’s ridiculous. Olivia Munn has basically destroyed the potential opening of a film she was in for her employer, Fox, so that she can get her name in the headlines as a metoo darling. Why should ANY business hire a person like that? Ever? And will she be able to file suit when these entertainment companies no longer employ her? After all, results are secondary to establishing cred and getting headlines in metoo world.
Yep. This is often the case. New management usually wants to remold the company closer to their own image of what works.
It even happens in families when a Step-Parent comes into the picture and takes control.
Men should be allowed several “hugs gone wrong.” Those horrible raped #metoo women! As long as the man is quiet when he climaxes he should be able to grab and grope. It’s about the company’s bottom line, not what he does with his bottom half.

Many DO clean house but the thing with “60 Minutes” is there is very little turnover because of Don Hewitt and what CBS ridiculously sees as their “objectivity.” Make no mistake, “60 Minutes” is one of the worst offenders when it comes to killing stories for political reasons. Watch “The Insider” and see how corrupt Chris Wallace’s swampy Dad was and, let me tell you, the apple doesn’t fall from the tree. The producers, Anderson Pooper and the all of the other people would revolt is a “ledendary” producer like this was forced out merely for cost cutting. Same thing happened to Hewitt when the world found out he killed stories for Philip Morris. Using “metoo” to get this guy out forces the liberal staff to choose between their supposed “objectivity” and their sick devotion to the metoo movement.
Except Fager is not and has not been accused of rape. He’s accused of “groping,” whatever that means in this case, at a party.
Don't think so, their "product" is a group of lying sacks of manure, maybe protected, but certainly not intelligence.
And it was proven that Mike Wallace and Hewitt hid actual news to protect “the network” from a potential Philip Morris lawsuit. 60 Minutes is corrupt no matter what their MSM friends say about them.
You are Correct.
“The exec had been at CBS News for 36 years and has been a leading figure at the news division for decades.”
Winning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!
The circle widens, and, as noted, it probably has little to do with #MeToo. The bigger reason is the removal of the old lions of the enemedia, who had pledged themselves to the protection of the Clinton/Obama crime conspiracy, by keeping a bias in the news, to make way for the Bernie Sanders/Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez protective coterie, defending the Democrat Socialists and Nation of Islam as a substitute, and this requires new faces and fresh initiatives to modify the bias.
The enemedia will still pedal fake news, that has not changed, but with new faces and with more fervent dedication. All the time it shall seem as if they have “cleaned house”, and therefore purged themselves of all those “old, bad” influences.
