Pat Buchanan, former Presidential Advisor and MSNBC Political Analyst discusses with Imus Dan Rather's reporting and anchoring.
Pat Buchanan: "Rather was a good reporter. Whatever you say about him. He really wanted to be there when the story was there. He wanted to be first with it. He wanted to be there when history was made. It's just that when you sit him down in that chair... You know we found out that Walter Cronkite has all these globalist views and he is very liberal, and we all knew that back in the 1960's. But it was uncle Walter telling us the news when he got behind that desk. I think Rather had a real problem basically ceasing to be Dan Rather confrontationist in the press room in the White House, and shifting to the Cronkite role. So in a sense he got all the fire and heat and he was constantly in battles with our side on every issue and he would fight back."
Dan who?
