Dan Rather will announce his new relationship with HDNet at the TCA press tour this week, Howard Kurtz reports.

Rather "has agreed to launch a program called 'Dan Rather Presents.'" HDNet owner Mark Cuban describes the show as "an opportunity to do news in what I like to call 'fearless mode,' what Dan calls 'with guts.' Go out there and find the stories we think will have impact." More...

> Also: Gail Shister says: "HDNet is scheduled to present a Q & A session tomorrow to TV critics gathered in L.A. Thus far, the network has not confirmed the content of the session or who will be there..."

Oh, I hope not. AHP was a great show.

One only wishes (forgive me Lord) that this had been dangerous dan's mother. It would have saved the nation from a myriad of lies, deceit, twisted facts, unsubstantiated rumors, un-named sources that didn't exist, faulty leftist logic and other assaults on the very foundation of the Republic.

"Go out there and find the stories we think will have impact."

That's not news... that's cherry picking stories that will fit your agenda. Cuban is such a wuss.

Oh, Dan's last story had impact, all right. Just not the impact he envisioned.

I just got rid of HBO from my cable lineup last week. I told the wife we should just dump cable altogether. Every channel is a lie.

I think we should all pitch in and buy Dan a typewriter for his new job.

Will it be like Alfred Hitchcock Presents?...........

Well, sort of. Like Hitchcock, Dan Rather's show WILL be fiction and Rather will try to scare people (into thinking George Bush is an evil monster, of course). But Hitchcock's stories were more believable than many of Gunga Dan's.

If you're TV is High Definition, and you subscribe to a high definition service, you get HDnet. It's really the only true High definition network...and you can tell the difference. They show movies and concerts and various sporting events.
