"Adam who? :-)" Yeah. Like Rather he has become an irrelevant "nobody" - except for the fact that both of them are responsible for new slang words in the dictionary:
"Clymer" = slang for "Big Time A$$hole", and "Dan Rather" = slang for "Rathergate". LOL
Where is this guy nowadays, anyhow?

Rather contended he's never "inhibited when it comes to news and trying to do fair-minded, accurate reporting on important stories."

"Dan got canned and now he's interviewed on a show that's on it's way out." Hello Dan, reality knocking..." But that's not "his truth". Like all the mentally and emotionally disturbed, "his reality" will only ever be what he wants it to be. He isn't emotionally equipped to face reality.
As Rush says, "It takes courage to face the truth."

'fair-minded, accurate reporting'
When did he do that? I must have missed it.
To: Minnesocold
Sing along with the minstrel! And we all know what happened to him. LOL

Funny but when I think of the MSM I tend to think more in terms of a brothel full of journalistic whores pulling a night shift than a castle full of journalistic knights.

For some odd reason, I instantly thought of the knights who say ni (shudders)
If you hadn't posted this, I would have. 8P

The whole problem with MSM reporting the past decades is that they don't identify which ideology each anecdotal story supports. That gives the style an odor of propaganda.

"that we see it as a sort of magical mystical kingdom of journalistic knights"
Too bad it is the rest of the world that isn't watching.

Abu Ghraib was NOT an important story. Tailhook was NOT an important story. The Koran-in-the-toilet story was NOT an important story. Of course, if you are an anti-American, anti-military ideologue these may be important to you and your soulmates. The Malmedy affair in WWII was an important story. The starvation of the Ukraine was an important story (even if The Times didn't think so).
