Drudge ^ | 2/15/05 | Drudge THE NEW YORK OBSERVER will report tomorrow: 'Former 60 Minutes Wednesday executive editor Josh Howard has told colleagues that before he resigns, the 23-year CBS News veteran will demand that the network retract remarks by CBS president Leslie Moonves, correct its official story line and ultimately clear his name'... In the event of a lawsuit, Mr. Howard has told associates that he would like to see Moonves put under oath to talk about his own roles in the network's stubborn, hapless defense of the flawed segment on President Bush's National Guard service. Howard has also indicated to colleagues that he... |

When will they be a retirement party or something similar for Rather that can be FReeped?
I don't like to go to NYC, but I'd pull out all the stops to try to go to a FReep like that.
And, I would hope that the ghost of Richard Nixon would show up to haunt Rather.

This looks as though this mess will indeed be reopened and more scandals outed. It couldn't happen to a worse lot. LOL
To: Stultis
And sources close to Mr. Howard said that before any resignation comes, the 23-year CBS News veteran is demanding that the network retract Mr. Moonves remarks, correct its official story line and ultimately clear his name. Yea ... I suppose having Forged Documents to try and change the out come of a Presidential Election doesn't look good on a resume
Happy Job Hunting !

To: Stultis
So basically Howard is complaining about the cover-up after the show aired and denies any responsibility for airing an unfounded pack of lies? I was a little bummed out to learn that the memos he was talking about are cover-up related and not pre-show but I guess there is a hint that there is more to come about the pre-airing discussions. Sweeeeeeeet.
Incidentally, how can any editor let a writer get away with calling an investigation by CBS lawyers "independent?" External maybe, but independent?

I love it too.........can't see what the goons come up with next.......
I did catch MSNBC tonite......ridiculous story. Trashing Brit Hume. Said Fox should retract or apologize for Brit's story about SS. Roosevelt's grandson even said Hume suggested Hume should resign.
Libs gone mad. Yet again.
