Dan Rather 'Suspicious' Trump and Fox Are Faking Feud

When it comes to fake news stories, if anyone's an expert it's Dan Rather . . . The disgraced former CBS News anchor has a new twist on the vast right-wing conspiracy. Instead of plotting against poor innocents like Bill and Hillary, those conspiratorial conservatives are now creating phony feuds among themselves!
On Rachel Maddow's show tonight, Rather declared himself "suspicious" about the battle between Donald Trump and Fox News, suggesting that Trump and Roger Ailes might have "gotten together and planned out" the feud for their mutual benefit.

In other words, they would be doing what he did. Projection.

Another expert on fake news floats to the top. Too many floating turds is not healthy.

With Kelly and Ramos making themselves the story and Fox airing the nonsense....it’s not really about Trump...it’s about the Journalists and Fox ratings.
They both ceased being Journalists when they made themselves the story...a big no-no in the industry.

LOL. That is stupid but funny. So what? Is that some sort of scandal? I seriously doubt they are faking it, but if they are, so what? The purpose would be? Fox is clearly an establishment supporter and not a Trump supporter, so what would be their motive?
Dan Rather is just embarrassing himself further.

If it were fake, Rather certainly would be the expert on fake news.

I think Kenneth finally told Dan what the frequency is.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
I agree with the first three words of the headline:
Dan Rather “Suspicious”.
THAT should be the headline AND story. Period.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
All you need to do is ask Mr. Trump.
