Dear mr. McKenzie:
Your article is more than fair to dan rather , In fact lets say it takes him off the hook in your opinion. You state that Mr Rather was the victim of a hoax.
I do not believe Mr Rather was the victim of a hoax, but the perpetrator of that hoax.. CBS states that their producer Mary Mapes has been working on this story for 5 years. How can an internet forum reader discover a hoax in 20 minutes that escaped this woman and Dan Rather for 5 years.
No sir : I am not as generous as you. It is my belief that Dan Rather was a full partner in an attempt to slander and impugn the integrity of a sitting President of the United States.This is not the first time Rather has used his position to attack those he does not agree with. My only hope is that the next time it will be in a letter on an op-ed page somewhere and not as an employee of CBS. He does not deserve to be called a journalist as he has broken the rules of fair and honest journalism.
The Kinkos conspiracy includes Dan Rather at its worst or it includes Dan Rather in the cover-up. He has no moral or journalistic obligation to hide the identity of those who were perpetrating this fraud. The fact that he is and CBS is allowing it shows this is bigger than some disgruntled former Guardsman that's a kook. It is hard to believe that the Kinkos conspiracy does not go straight to the DNC. CBS should change its name to DNC or come clean.
Mackenzie forgot to mention Rather's reporting during the Florida recount battle...when he had to report on a decision made by Katherine Harris at one point he kept interjecting "as she sees it" or a similar phrase so often that it would have been funny, if it had not been pathetic.
