“CBS has denounced the movie, which opens Friday, as a disservice to the public and journalists.”
That’s funny, I’d denounce CBS and journalists as a disservice to the public.

Dan must be psychotic if it’s still bothering him. Did any one tell him that Bush isn’t president any more?

I think that this is more self-serving and less, ‘taking the high road”. After all they fired him. The movie probably is set up to make CBS look bad.

I don’t suppose that the movie mentions it that the document was first exposed as a fraud right here on Free Republic?

...the movie must be really really bad if CBS refuses to advertise for it... They refuse to advertise it because it makes CBS look bad.

I have to agree with this...Dan Rather was proven to be a liar when this was all going on....so why should anything be different now?
He is was apart of the MSM ...no different now the way the MSM portrays the lies they tell....

Am I reading this right?
The film isn’t hard enough on Rather?

Despite heavy competition for the title, Robert Redford is Hollywood’s Biggest Liar.
Yes, ladies, I know he’s cute. Liars usually are.

Sounds like the movie doesn't even mention that the documents were forgeries at all. Read the Hollywood blurb:
But CBS apologized for the story after documents used were called into question and could not be verified.
It wasn't that they "could not be verified." They were proven to be forged. The only issue was whether Rather and Mapes directed their creation.

Dan Rather is crazier than an outhouse rat.Now that's an affront on the veracity of outhouse rats. Dan Rather is a lying, partisan hack who makes Goebels look honest by comparison and Mary Mapes should be sued out of every penny she has.

Trump seems to get along with the interviewer way more in CBS interviews than in NBC, ABC or CNN. They’re probably the least raging liberal of the alphabet MSM.

HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They foisted this arsewipe on us for decades and now they want to disown him. They knew damn well what he was up to.
They just could not go down with him, after such a BLATANT lie. All the previous lies were so subtle

Redford is playing Rather. Redford Always plays the tireless hero. Watch Sneakers for an excellent example.
