During an appearance on CNN's Reliable Sources Sunday, disgraced CBS Evening News anchor Dan Rather did his best to excuse the criticism of CNBC’s Republican presidential debate and instead chose to blame Republicans for fueling such hatred towards the press.

While Rather briefly admitted that CNBC"didn’t do it perfectly" the liberal journalist quickly blamed the GOP presidential candidates whose "constituency loves attacks on the press. So the moderators open themselves to some criticism." -

Rather continued to dismiss the substance of the criticism against CNBC's biased debate and argued that it was just a made up issue by conservatives:

[Mr. K]

Nobody gives a $h*t what you think Dan

[Paladin2]

Rather retarded.

[WorkingClassFilth]

You’ve lost the frequency, Kenneth.

Good grief! I thought ole Dan had died a while back. Guess I had some bad info.

[rockinqsranch]

Thanks. Now I don’t have to post that.

[rockrr]

He died a long while ago. He just doesn’t have the decency to stop breathing.

[IncPen]

I am grateful that he lived to see his own disgrace.

[Fightin Whitey]

I thought ole Dan had died a while back

No he LIED a while back.

Over and over and over again for 40 years, in fact, but he finally got called on it by the hero Buckhead here on FR!

Dan Blather should stay retired to his house on Lake Travis, to the left of Austin, TX.

And that is *left*.

Us normal people would call it West.

Dan Blather—He’s been around too long.

I can’t remember the last time I watched a tv news program. I figure if it’s not here on FR, I don’t need to know about it.

[basil]

Our home is on Lake Travis. I think ole Dan sold his lake house long ago.

[Michael.SF.]

Guess I had some bad info.

Or wishful thinking?

;)

[Huskrrrr]

Broken down old liberal dribble.

[4rcane]

so the media became bias to help republicans because republicans voters love bashing press. What circular reasoning

[Kaslin]

Who is Kenneth?

[BigEdLB]

Dan Rathernot is so old, dementia has set in.

[SkyDancer]

And who listens to this lying creep?

[beethovenfan]

OK Dan, time for your dirt nap.
