"Thanks to blogs and other "new" media, the prejudices of the old media princes will no longer go unquestioned."

And the sooner these old media losers learn this the better.

PING! You're mentioned by name in bringing down Dan Blather.

[hispanarepublicana]

I love it when a plan comes together.

[Travis McGee]

GIve credit where credit is due.

[HarleyD]

Someone should send this to Bill O'Reilly.

[Prime Choice]

The old media isn't going to learn any lessons from this matter. Instead, they'll squeeze their political bedmates to start regulating the Internet.

Mark my words.

[TrueKnightGalahad]

Buh-BYE, Dan.

[jim macomber]

The unkindest cut of all?
A media consultant on Fox and Friends the other morning pointed out that Rather made his bones on Nixon and Watergate and it is so ironic that when confronted with this debacle of his own making, Rather's reaction was downright "Nixonesque".

[Americanwolf]

The once was a freeper named Buckhead,
Who with vigilance the news he read,
He saw a report by Rather,
and said that's a lie I gather,
He spread the news far and wide!
That was the day Rather's Career died.

[OldFriend]

The media upstaged the 2000 election. How COULD we forget!

[cynicom]

"Rather's credibility was destroyed."....

Destroyed???? Not possible. Any thinking American had long ago dismissed Blather as just another partisan hack making the news to suit his agenda.

[N. Theknow]

From there, intrepid bloggers Powerlineblog.com and Little Green Footballs, the Woodward and Bernstein of Rathergate, began to document the mounting signs of forgery.

Unlike Woodward and Bernstein, the bloggers did not make up a fictitious being and ascribe innuendo and gossip to him as facts.

[tirednvirginia]

Does Buckhead still post on FR under this screen name or has he had to go undercover?

Hope Buckhead comes to the FR inaugural ball - it would be fabulous to meet him. He is such an important and famous person these days and we owe Buckhead so much.

[beckett]

...some gifted amateurs in Middle-western suburbs had proven that the documents could not be genuine

IIRC Buckhead is a southeasterner from Atlanta, Ga.

Thank the LORD....the commie news networks are history. ;o)

They can fool some of the people some of the time but not all the time.

[F.J. Mitchell]

As Jackie Gleason used to say:

" How SWEET IT IS!!!!!!"

[Grampa Dave]

Note to the left wing maggots in charge of CBS phoney news. We have our eye on your eye!

[Mr. K]

and THEN the G$%DA#$ BASTIGE had THE NERVE to say to the president [nevermnind whether the documents were forged....]"with respect, answer the questions"


IN A FARGIN FORGED DOCUMENT?????????

[Libertina]

Americans tuned out politics and tuned in to "The Decline and Fall of Dan Rather.
A lie in the first sentence? Dan Rather IS politics - his POLIICAL BIAS was the very reason for the attack on the President.
