That describes Dan Rather. For decades.
When Rather was in Jasper during the Byrd trials he was followed around by a young woman with a big case of make-up and powdered his nose during the commercial breaks. It was really comical to watch.
Dan Rather defines "false pride."
I am NOT a conspiracy nut--but I have never trusted Walter Cronkhite after I found out how he undermined the war effort in Vietnam after the Tet Offensive. And now we find out that the same person who brought us the "scandal" of Abu Grahib may be responsible for "memo-gate?" Just what is CBiaS up to?
