LIVE THREAD: Dan Rather's Last Broadcasts
www.freerepublic.com | March 9, 2005 | Free Republic

Posted on 03/09/2005 2:17:25 PM PST by Howlin

Dan Rather enters the CBS broadcast center for his last scheduled broadcast of the 'CBS Evening News' March 9, 2005 in New York. Tributes to the 73-year-old newsman were mixed with sniping after his final months were marred by a reporting scandal that tarnished his reputation. REUTERS/Chip East

Leftist media is not over. CNN is now whining about the military for not being "nice" enough to dead terrorist and beligerent prisoners.

Matthews: "Wasn't his problem his career choice? With Nixon, with Bush, he seemed to always make a big deal of him versus a, what turned out to be, predicably republican opponent."

His last segment was on 9/11, a subject that stirs deep emotions on me. I guess he wanted to play with our emotions as a last good-bye.

I wish him the best, and I hope he uses his free time to reflect and learn his lessons.

On Hardball they're saying his leaving is making conservatives cheer tonight. From the sounds of some of his liberal colleagues this week, I doubt the cheering is ONLY coming from the right.

I now know why all those dim bulb's on Jay Lenno's "Man on the Street" interviews don't know anything. If you watch Rather's broadcast, you don't know who the President is!!!

...where reporting it all means risking it all...

I guess he has a different definition of "all" means than we do.
