Rather acted preemptively by quitting as the "Evening News" anchor.

I heard a rumor that Rather was leaving See BS. Any truth to it?

He's stepping down as anchor at CPS in March, according to the current timetable. They SAY he's still going to do Sixty Minutes II. We'll see.

Viacom will never admit to the American public what their agenda truly is.

Viacom is in to damage repair and was putting the heat on Rather.

FIVE YEARS this witch has spent fabricating a story about Bush's service record

Yet when there are serious discrepancies in Kerry's record - not a damn thing!

That says it all....

Yep, nice big adams apple. If she (?) weren't so fugly at least there'd be some rational explanation as to how she got and has kept her job.

Didn't read all the responses so someone may have already asked ... isn't Friday, December 10th the day the findings from the "Rathergate" commission are supposed to be released? Can anyone confirm this ...

Thanks!

The MSM Tombstone is another great one. I can't remember who did the original one. Meekonegop has updated it to include the major liars of the MSM.
