The complete remark is even more bizarre.

DAN RATHER, FORMER NEWS ANCHOR, CBS EVENING NEWS: No. We've certainly seen behavior we didn't like in presidents, but we've never seen nothing like this. This is new. And I do think that most people get it. That most people understand that they're facing on a daily basis from the White House and from the president himself the rough equivalent you're facing a fertilizer spreader in a windstorm. ...

I think it's absolutely imperative now more than ever is when the press needs to be a kind of truth squad for this and every other president. It's perhaps more important with President Trump because there are more untruths to set record straight. But if journalists cower, as many in Congress, both some Democrats and some Republicans in Congress, were cowering with the NRA, if journalists cower, then how long can we sing "we're the home of the brave"?
