Dan Rather: Media Must Publicly Shame Donald Trump Supporters
Breitbart ^ | 8/10/2016 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 08/10/2016 2:44:21 PM PDT by bkopto

Rather appeared horrified by Trump’s comment, struggling to explain his shock.

“By any objective analysis, this is a new low and unprecedented in the history of American presidential politics,” he said.

Rather challenged the media to hold Trump accountable for his words, urging them to do more to try to shame his supporters.

“We will see whether major newscasts explain how grave and unprecedented this is and whether the headlines in tomorrow’s newspapers do it justice,” he said. “We will soon know whether anyone who has publicly supported Trump explains how they can continue to do.”

Dan Rather is still the same old liberal shill he always was and wrote the book on liberal bias in the MSM. The MSM has done nothing but trash Donald Trump, thus trashing his supporters too, Dan. What else do you suggest that the MSM does, forget all other news and just trash Trump 100% of the time? They are close to doing that already.

Rather, Rather... that would be the POS who falsified and outright made-up stories about President Bush, correct...?

Gee... SUCH a... valuable, credible source of information, ain’t he...

There must be WalMart somewhere that needs a cashier. Maybe he can get a job there.

Cashier is too good for that POS, cleaning toilets would suit him better since he’s feces himself.

Rather is certainly the king of public shaming. He ought to remember something about living in a glass house.

He shamed himself, big time. Must still plague him and that is why he is suggesting it.

At least he’d learn the value of honesty.

Nonpartisan is not in the liberal lexicon, except as a joke.

The mainstream media doesn’t have the credibility, let alone moral authority, to shame anyone.

Gunga Dan Blather just said, “Let’s you and them fight” to members of the media. Green light for naked bias & more.

Someone’s going to shove a mike in a Trump supporter’s face who will knock it aside & then the whole camera crew will jump him & it’s Katy bar the door after that.

“Media no longer report the news, they ARE the news.”
