Limbaugh! Rather & Kalb Credit Free Republic (or Buckhead.com) for breaking the FORGED documents
Limbaugh ^ | 09/27/05 | Rush

RUSH: I want to now go to these Dan Rather sound bites. Dan Rather was interviewed last night at the National Press Club in Washington by former CBS News employee-reporter Marvin Kalb. Marvin Kalb now runs the John F. Kennedy School of Government's Shorenstein Center at Harvard, and you know something? When you hear these bites you're going to understand what I'm saying here. This is one of the problems of the mainstream media today. When these reporters that get long in the tooth get laid off or retired, they farm them out to these think tanks and these journalism schools and these government schools, and these old guys start inculcating their old-media, old-world views into these students, and that's why nothing changes. Some of this (laughing) especially sound bite #2 here,

....KALB: Every now and then it even looks as if the new media is at war with the old media. I want to go back to the National Guard story of last year. I've always been astonished that even before the program ended -- it was still on -- a blog site called FreeRepublic.com run by an active Air Force officer blasted the program. Four hours later another website called Buckhead ran a detailed critique of the documents that you used in the report. What happened, then, was that dozens of other bloggers joined in, then the mainstream media joined in, and then everything shifted and the focus was on you! The focus was not on the substance of your story --

We need to give Marv a little shcoolin' as to what's what...you'd think he'd be smart enough to do some reasearch and not completley get all his facts wrong as he did...

Rush mentioned Free Republic and Buckhead on today's show segment! Someone should post that Grim Reaper at The White House photo on here - its just too funny. Another MSM manufactured impression of someone reaching out to bless the crowds! ;-)

Kalb is from the Land of the Lost, another freeking moron like Rather. (left to right) Rather, Kalb and Brokow all screeching, raging and livid at Free Republic:

OOOOOH I am so scared!

Since when has Dan Rather, the Lame Stream Media, or any other DUmmie psycophants, EVER bothered with anything like research & facts?

Which is of course the whole point, and the source of their shame.

The comments that the accusations were true, and that only the supporting documents were lacking in credibility cracked me up.
