Funny how Rather immediately called the challenges to the story partisan. I think the "independent journalist" is projecting.

As usual Freepers were all over it. Yesterday afternoon a Freeper posted a report from a family member that had been on the same plane as Blather. Dan'l was in first class, but I was skeptical of the story as I could not imagine the great Dan Rather flying commercial, even in first class. Maybe the suits are pissed at him after all.

There was some good speculation in the thread about why Dan was in such a hurry to visit Dallas.

Well Danny Blather Boy, at least the guy from Fox doesn't have to back up to the pay table. All the old vets on FR know what that one means.

I think you meant "doped".....Or maybe the reporter meant "doped"? Or have we been duped?

I saw it, an ambush, I don't think so.

Rather is now in the role of Nixon, ya gotta luv it.

This is too rich for words. Love it when someone comes out with how they 'really' feel. Hehe!

I have a feeling Fox News is going to LOVE THIS!
