"What (crack!) is the frequency (crack!), Kenneth?"

Former CBS News anchor and reporter Dan Rather sent shockwaves through CBS and the mainstream media with his dramatic lawsuit against his former employer. On CNN's Larry King Live last night, Rather seemed shaken and very emotional, fighting back tears on several occasions. His legal claims are even shakier.
The suit involves how Rather was treated before, during and after the scandal that badly damaged the network back in 2004 and 2005 when it made explosive but false charges, based on phony documents, against President Bush just two months before the presidential election. The story backfired on the network, reconfirming to millions of people the existence of a liberal media bias.
The story line was that President Bush had political connections that got him in to the Texas Air National Guard so that he could avoid going to the Vietnam War, and that he shirked his duties and responsibilities in the Guard. Rather featured alleged Texas Air National Guard documents on the air as proof of these charges.

Louisville Slugger?
And not only that, they can win against him in this lawsuit as well.
LOL!
I am glad Dan still believes in the story, but the facts are they had no case and should never have aired the story. Now Dan has no legal case either, but that isn’t going to stop him from looking like a fool.
What’s with all the CRYING??? He is a tad unstable.
Karma, the event sequences and circumstances should have been reversed.
I didn't say that last part.

I saw a few seconds of dan on larry, but I was laughing so hard I couldn’t hear what they were saying. Just the sight of those 2 senile, clueless, old frauds faking a serious discussion cracked me up.
Judging by Blather's irrational egocentric defense of the indefensible - the lying little bastard has already had his brain housing group severely damaged.....
Blather is a will known example to prove the point - that Liberalism is a Mental Disease or indication of Mentally deficient individuals....
Courage.
“They can’t report the news the way they used to”.
This is going to be fun to watch.

Nothing is as sad and pathetic as watching outdated and unwanted journalists crying for their right to the spotlight, writing copious letters to the editors demanding that their column/spotlight be restored.
They come to mistake the artificial lights and fame for the real — and when those days are over, they become bewildered and perplexed that the neighborhood kids don’t quake in trepidation at every threat of disfavor and distemper.
That’s what Social Security was created for — so that these people could retire with dignity, but many don’t appreciate that foresight and generosity but still insist on having it all — the fame, the riches, the women, the adulation — and can’t understand, their whole lives were lived in this futile illusion to create their “legacies” they think is so important to everybody else.
The fact is, they never mattered as much as they thought they did — ever. But we see these same sad stories being played out in every community — where those who have been bought out to stay home, keep returning to the office, demanding to be heard and restored to their former glory — which was only an illusion in the first place.
Welcome to the new world, welcome to reality. Get your flu shot and get your seat on the front of the bus — but no, there is no captive audience out there demanding to learn of how you would rule the world, if you were rightfully in charge.
Shockwaves? I doubt it. In fact I suspect CBS has been expecting this. And, IMHO, they will win the suit.
How dare anyone make fun of Dan, after all he’s been through.
He’s a human! Sob!
;-)
Legally or physically?
He's clearly lost it.
