They just talked about it on FNC. It seems a Fox reporter tracked Rather down at D/FW international airport. He had just arrived and was heading to his limo.
Supposedly the Fox reporter asked him how it felt to be duped.
ALSO- I am wondering what Rather is doing here. Is he in Texas to interview Burkett? Was the interview with the 80+ year old, "I'm a yellow dog democrat" lady not shameless enough?
What a childish thing for Dano to say!
LOL! Dan is truely not in the real world!
I'm ashamed too that Rather is from Texas.
I know Dan Rather lives here in Austin part of the time. He and Ron Franklin (sportscaster) are neighbors. Don't know why he is in Dallas.
--Someone mentioned it on FR, I think. That might even be how Fox found out.--
I think you're right. Yesterday a FReeper was on Dan's plane to Dallas. The Pajama People were opining that someone should meet him with a camera and do an ambush interview.
Dan can rub, but he can't hide from the Pajama People.
If he were in Dallas today, it would be difficult (but not impossible) to get Monday's planning and shows done in NYC on Monday. This could be his last gasp (grasp at reality?) on live TV.
Reporter asks Rather if he was duped! Ha!
No, he IS the duper!!!
I was away from the computer for awhile, but it looks like you got your answer from someone else about what Dan had to say.
What a jerk. I wish the guy had asked him what he thinks about Fox beating the pants off of him in the ratings.
I thought he was bing pretty smarmy, myself. Damn smug man, that's for sure
NYT reported today that Dan was there to meet with Burkett
I saw it and it was totally lame. The reporter had no idea what the story was, asking only if Dan was duped. Fine, if the reporter doesn't know anything, at least his producer could have come up with a list of questions to pepper Dan with on the way to the car. No time for that? Go over the list with the reporter on his cell phone on the way to the airport! But no...nothing...a totally wasted opportunity. Lamestream media at it's finest.
he acted like he was in that commerical "Thank You"... HEY YOU LOOK PREGNANT?? WHAT IM NOT PREGNANT WHAT DO YOU MEAN? "thank you" HAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA
Dog-gone it. I should have hit my ping list on the prior thread. Maybe Freeper folks would have shown up with the FOX News entourage. I figured it was too late by the time I found out. But I should not do that. This was a case where ping now, ask questions later would have fit. Lesson learned I hope.
Getting this on tape would be the icing on the cake. And yet, I don't think we're done yet.
