CBS says Iraqi officials editing tapes of Dan Rather interview with Saddam Hussein

"...an honest guy...

Gee, I believe that...

YOINK!

On now: BUMP

"Who chooses what direction to point the camera, and why?" - Dan Rather

Dan sure looks convinced in the reaction shots in this edit (even though he doesn't know Arabic).

Dan says it was not censored. What a pawn.

Bubba lied on camera and under oath too.

"I - did not - have - weapons - of - mass - destruction - in - violation - of - the - 17 UN treaties! Now let me get back to my job of looking out for the future of the Iraqi children."

WE REPORT. SADDAM DECIDES.

LOL!! Good one...

Wouldn't it be RICH if Sad Man does a 60-Minutes hack job on the interview so it comes out with him appearing to say things he never actually said? Man, would THAT be sweet medicine for Captain Dan, The News Man?!

Wouldn't be the first time (the audio of this may be found on different file servers, the vinyl single turns up from time to time). More details can be found here.

"Editing can alter the original meaning and context, and computers can alter the image itself. The camera can also be manipulated. At the very least, it must be turned in one direction -- only one direction at a time ... Who chooses what direction to point the camera, and why?"

Dan Rather in a 7/8/98 speech

Sorry about that (duplicate response), I'm processing through several threads on this subject and got mixed up.

"We do not have missiles that go beyond the proscribed range."

=======================

I can't help picturing him saying this at a podium while pointing his finger at us and having Hillary in the background. "And now, I've got to go back to work for the people of Iraq."
