What is more fake? Pro Wretling or Dan Rather and CBS News?
Has not been named yet by CBS. Probably from within the Kerry campaign. | 9/13/04 | Me

For the record. Dan Rather and CBS News is MUCH more fake than pro wrestling. Hulk Hogan and The Rock would NEVER tarnish their credibility by appearing on CBS News or "60 Minutes".

I've attended two pro-wrestling events with my son. The wrestling is far more credible than Dan Rather.

Even wrestling admits to being 'fixed', giving it more credibility than Blather.

Britney Spears' breasts? Or Dan Rather's ethics?

The preffered term is "scripted". ;)

You hit it on the head.

Wrestling is sports entertainment. That is what it is billed as. CBS is news entertainment. Since I couldn't find the word entertainment anywhere within the first amendment under freedom of the press, I would have to assume that CBS does not qualify as a news source.

Withdraw their press credentials.

I much prefer amateur wretling, myself, but Rather and See BS deserve some sort of award for their "creativeness in journalism."

I attended a WWW event with my Cub Scout troop as a wee lad. I distinctly remember (it was seared, seared in my brain. No, really.) looking around and thinking, "Adults really fall for this stuff?"

Three-plus decades later I still have the same reaction when I look at CBS News.

After I saw a report about wrestling on, believe it or not, "60 Minutes," several years ago, I actually developed more respect for wrestling. Doing a "pile driver" without actually killing your opponent takes a lot of athletic prowess.

The difference between wrestling and Rather is that we know wrestling is "fake", but we still see something pretty impressive. We know Rather is fake, and we see a menace to the Republic.
