About time someone DID... CBS, NBS, and ABS and even PBS.. are apples in the same barrel brewing a funcky moldy cider.. Well past time for disinfectant...
RAthER: "I'm not a journalist, but I play one on TV."
Rather has never gotten over how Bush 41 bitchslapped the hell out of him during an interview back in '88.
Danny boy's been a mess ever since.
See why we need "stem cell research'?
The LSM just found it's poster boy for the job.
Dan the 'RAT-herrrrrrr' victim of Alzheimers!
then again, RATS make good scientific test models. Now there's one for the Gipper!
John Kerry has a plan...
The MSM is ONLY doing this story because they percive it a blow to their own prestige and credibility...They are not yet ready to say Rather KNEW the documents were frauds or that he knew his sources were far from unimpeachable.
He should have done more fact checking, had the documents thoroughly examined, talked to people who didn't hate Bush...but he had so much in common with the Bush haters, was so biased, so arrogant that he went blind and deaf and stupid...
Mapes is toast...Rather's credibility is toast...but he will linger on awhile.
LOL. . .For sure; and longer. . .
ROTFLMPO ... THAT has to be the best Groucho I've seen in a LOOooong time.!!!

Despite the common implication that Nixon was responsible, that episode is not known as Nixongate, but Watergate.
Just because this is going to be known as Rathergate or some such, does not necessarily mean that he will be noted in history as the major actor in the episode.
Was Rather DEEP THROAT???
Only the shadow knows
