Perhaps the whitewashing of Rather's involvement was not aimed at protecting his involvement but to save him from embarassment that he wasn't. That is: Rather claimed to have personally checked this and that but what if he realy was an empty suit and did much of nothing but read the teleprompter? You can see why that wouldn't be discussed in the report.

I hear you. Why do I get the idea that there is going to be a Politburo-style official history of the MSM taught in journalism schools regarding the Rathers, Cronkites, and Mapeses, while the real story is only told in journalism's back alleys?
