The Dan Rather lawsuit is nothing more than a shakedown. Rather is threatening to reveal skeleton’s in CBS’ closet in order to get CBS management to cave and settle out of court with a fat payoff.

Blumenthal’s piece reads like a threatening screed written by Rather himself [hmmmmmm].

Whatever.

Odds are, Rather is striking some nerves with the threats of being able to dig deep with legal authority [Mapes is making the same assertions].

So CBS will indeed cave [cuz they probably have quite a few skeletons that Rather is intimately aware of] and Dan Rather will be championed by the left as having been right about the phony documents and heralded as a hero sacrificed on the alter of corporate|Republican dirty tricks.

We’ll be hearing something along those lines for the next twenty years.

And the beat goes on...
