Dan, answer the door. It's some guy in pajamas who wants to talk to you.

Its not just the end of Dan Rather. Its the end of Dan Rathers.

"....grooming Baghdad Bob to replace him."

Speaking of whom, where is the former Dis-informaion Minister these days?

Last I heard, he was poking around either Bahrain, Dubai, or the Emirates as a news caster or some such.

[Semper911]

Its not just the end of Dan Rather. Its the end of Dan Rathers.

Great line. I might just swipe it from time to time.

From longtime Los Angeles Times Media "Critic" DAVID SHAW:


RATHER's work 'Shoddy, Slipshod' not LIBERAL

Have at it. I swiped it myself.

[Temple Owl]

Sounds like you have him properly pegged. All liberals deny being liberals these days. They call themselves "moderates." Good post BYW.

[TruthWillWin]

They call themselves "moderates." Good post BYW.

Progressive is also commonly being used now that the "L" word has become a big negative.

Thanks for the ping!

I seem to remember hearing they arrested him, and he's cooling his heels in an Iraqi prison, or something.

Now I kinda' wonder myself.

[ArrogantBustard]

As I recall, Baghdad Bob tried to surrender to the Coalition Provisional Authority and they declined to arrest him ... on the grounds that he didn't know anything worthwhile, and wasn't the sort of Big Fish they were looking for.

[Bullish]

Don't you think they would have held him on the same grounds that they hold others who were in the Iraqi leadership?

[ArrogantBustard]

I remember being both surprised and amused by the result ... he thought he was Big Stuff; the CPA thought otherwise.

But my memory is far from perfect.

[Ditto]

Courage Dan, your anchor seat is hotter than a Times Square Rolex.

I say his reporting has been genuine as a Times Square Rolex.

[TChris]

Its the end of Dan Rathers.

A moment of silence exuberant cheering for the death of the Legacy News Media (LNM)!

Yeeeaaaaaarrrrrggghhhhhh! (to quote some guy who's name I forget)

[Bullish]

Wasn't he in the Iraqi most wanted deck of cards?

[cynicom]

Will Rather of maintenance report to aisle 5 for a wet clean up?

[ArrogantBustard]

I just checked, and didn't find him.
