This fellow seems to think we get paid to be Pajamahudeen. As in "if you destroy us you won't have a job either". Dude, it would make me very happy if there was no significant media bias to check. I could spend my time and energy on other worthwhile pursuits.
Out of self-defense for the culture, we HAVE to take these people on. I don't like to gloat when we beat them, but we need to beat them. It was unfortunate that we had to take Rather out, but he had too much power and was abusing it too badly. That is dangerous for the Republic.
We haven't taken Rather out, yet. Losing the anchor chair is it; he'll still be free to do hit pieces from 60 Minutes.
Our work is not yet done, on this one.

A FReeper once posted to me that Rather got his start covering the shooting of JFK. At the time, he was a local newscaster/reporter/whatever. One segment he said the bullet came from one direction. The next segment he said the bullet came from another. A star was born.
