Dan Rather duped CBS. He's been doing it for a long, long, time.
From the Halls of CBS
To the desk of Dan Rather
We fight our country’s media bias
In the net, tv ads, and stream
First to fight for rights of Freepers
And to keep the media clean
We are proud to claim the title of
The FREE REPULIC TEAM
I don't think the liberal Ted Turner had any clue as to what would become of his "revolt" against the major networks and how it would eventually come to haunt CNN as well. Likewise, when Al Gore invented the internet, I don't think he had conservative bloggers and Free Republic in mind.
It is amazing the Rush did not know this. He is usually on top of things. It is one of the biggest hypocrisies of the Kerry-ites that Kerry has gigantic holes in his reserve record indicating that he did not fulfill his responsibilities there. Not enough people are aware of this partly because Rush has not made it known.
Buh bye MSM. Just waiting for rigor mortis to set in.
BULL... CBS will be supported by all those that voted for Al Gump.... Evil is as evil does...
The key issue here is how fast the media is to jump on news that can be construed as Anti-Bush and then lend bias support either intentionally or unintentionally to the same news. Fair and Balanced the american people deserve nothing less. The only media outlet that attempts to be fair and balanced is Fox. The MSM is the cause for the division in the country. In any event... the MSM is all Liberal Pravda.
I worked at the pentagon in 1972 & 1973 in the communications center. I had a selectric at the time with a special print head made to use with the first optical scanner for reading information.
Just to set the record straight.
The really big problem here is that there is absolutely no accountability. The companies that fund See B.S. are going to get YOUR money every time you go to the store. They then turn what was YOUR MONEY over to king Rather I, ruling emperor of See BAIS news.
There should be an FCC requirement that a company broadcasting OVER THE PUBLIC AIRWAVES must have some iota of apolitical objectivity. The FCC is, of course, funded with our taxes and probably wants more.
I canceled my subscription to the Orlando Sentinel (Orlando Slantinel as we call it here) the day after they endorsed traitor Clinton for a second term in 1996. I have not read a sentence from the Slantinel since that day in 1996.
I stopped watching ABC,CBS and NBC years ago. Once in a great while, my wife and I watch CNN's Larry King as we play a game to see who can guess the softball question King will throw to his socialist pals who are "guests". Once one of us wins, we shut it off laughing our heads off. FOX is the only TV station I watch for news/political news. I even stopped watching Hollywood produced TV shows--I am tired of their social commentary in entertainment shows. The TV in our household is for select movies and sport events only, and for FOX News shows.
I boycott Disney even though I live in Orlando because Peter Jennings is anti-American and Eisner is anti-American values. I laughed when I saw the trailers for the Disney produced movie Pearl Harbor having anti-American Alex Baldwin in a starring role.
I catch Mike Savage, Sean Hannity and Rush when I can or travelling during office hours. I use the Internet for research and for fair opinion.
I would not read a New York Times article if I was paid to. While waiting in the doctor's office, I will twiddle my thumbs before I would ever pick up a Time or Newsweek magazine. Why should I read from socialist writers? I read Michelle Malkin, Peggy Noonan and Ann Coulter from the Internet.
I may not be typical but I have thrown out the MSM for good. I am sure there are others like me, and I am sure these numbers will grow.
---This goes on and on. And now guess what's coming up on Monday? Kitty Kelley at The Today Show. Is that going to survive? Is NBC going to rethink putting Kitty Kelley on for three days?---
I can't find any mention of Kitty Kelly on the Today Show website. are they bailing?

Hey Rush - how about showing us how its done by suing the Enquirer ?
Or was it Louis the XIV?? Louis the XXX? ... anyway
He means, "even if it tells us up is down, black is white, and freedom is slavery". Answer, no, of course not. It is not who says it, it is what is said. That need not be tested in a partisan manner but it is always tested. If you try to tell me things I can see with my own eyes aren't so, then you are a liar and I have no reason to pay any attention. What the Dems have wrong with them is they react that way to mere reports of factual information, if they don't agree not with the world or reality, but with their own past spin, prejudice, etc. They left reality quite a while ago. Republicans haven't. This writer is again pretending there is a moral and intellectual equivalence where there is none.
Republicans don't believe things Democrats say when those things are demonstratively false. Dems don't even listen, they cover their ears, when Republicans tell them things that are demonstrably true. No amount of "love of equality spin" can make those equivalent.
The question of if they are fake seams to have been established. Now is the time for the next question... Why did the democrats have these documents?
