Robert Redford has signed on to play Dan Rather in Truth, a film based on the 2005 memoir Truth and Duty: The Press, the President, and the Privilege of Power.
The book, written by Rather's producer Mary Mapes, centers on the firestorm that erupted in September of 2004 after Rather reported that George W. Bush had received special treatment while serving in the Air National Guard during the Vietnam War, a report that was based on documents that turned out to be forgeries. - See more at: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/robert-redford-play-dan-rather-717476#sthash.Y0QB620e.dpuf

Forget Dan Blather, it’s going to be a Bush bashing movie all the way.

Someone refresh my memory. Was an original typewritten document ever found?
To: TigerClaws
This movie will completely bomb! Nobody will watch it. Why does Hollywood insist on making these movies that nobody wants to watch? Does anybody really think that there are lots of people clamoring for this film?

It will contain as much truth as Bonnie Franklin’s portrayal of Margaret Sanger.

Have the limousine liberals in Hollyweird nominated it for an Oscar yet? I mean, if Obama can get the Nobel Peace Prize after only days in office surely they can award an Oscar to a film that has yet to be made.

The words “truth” and “Dan Rather” should never appear in the same sentence.
