Obviously Dan Rather has usurped control of CBS. Leslie Moonves is probably in intensive care somewhere after this, and Rather has pulled a Weinberger-esque "I'm in control here."
I can't imagine any of the superegoes at CBS would allow this jamoke to sink the entire news operation. I would lay odds that Dan Rather will resign his position at CBS without revealing his source... There will be considerable internal pressure to do so if the network wants to save face now...
Weinberger-esque?????????? I believe you meant, "Haig-esque."
Edwards wants Bush to address Guard memos
Breck Boy is totally clueless.
When the story broke, I was kind of thinking that maybe, some of the folks at See-BS who are nominally Danny-boy's superiors are involved. When someone is "too big" to be fired, sometimes other methods are used to get rid of them.
Maybe Les Moonves was overheard thinking out loud "will no one rid me of this meddlesome egomaniac?".
