The old order was dying. It was beginning to create rather than report the news. Too bad he held on unnecessarily. Too bad he actively and obviously tried to turn an election by reporting falsehoods.

Hey Dan, you discredited, washed-up has-been...here is what most thinking people think about your opinions...

This guy somehow thinks he is some kind of expert on world events. Sad.

I think it's funny, course they are both jokes.

He said this pressure -- along with the "dumbed-down, tarted-up" coverage, the advent of 24-hour cable competition and the chase for ratings and demographics -- has taken its toll on the news business. "All of this creates a bigger atmosphere of fear in newsrooms," Rather said.

No, it just means your time is over...step aside.

"All of this creates a bigger atmosphere of fear in newsrooms,"

Be afraid, you com-symp socialist fraud and fellow marxist propgandist perverts, be very afraid.

HAHAHA I got a great kick out of this Nevins being responsible for "G-String Divas" and "Taxicab Confessions". Both are just straight out leering soft porn junk. As for "documentaries" Taxicab Confessions is NOT real. That's obvious to anyone who observes the way it's filmed and the alleged "real life conversations." My favorite was the one in which the scumbag performed oral sex on his skank girlfriend in the back of the cab. As the finale to a 5 minute cab discussion of everything about their sex lives. Very realistic. Dan had some real good support there.

"When a man is close to tears discussing his work and his lip quivers, he deserves bosses who punch back. I feel I would punch back for Dan," Nevins said."

BWAAAAHAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAA!

Dan Rather said Monday that there is a climate of fear running through newsrooms stronger than he has ever seen in his more than four-decade career

COURAGE!

What can a confirmed biased liar do but have tears for a legacy that has gone down the toilet.
