"There has never been an American war, small or large, in which access has been so limited as this one," Rather said, adding that he was sorry to say that the American people have accepted these limitations.

DAN IS A LIAR. In World War II all war reporters were drafted into the army. They were forced to wear military uniforms with out badge of rank and call all officers SIR. They had the rank of a 2nd John. But were were considered to have less seniority than any commissioned 2nd john entited to wear the badge of rank. They reporters had to be saluted by enlisted men, but could not command them.

All NEWS reports had to be cleared by a military censor..Yes that was their title MILITARY Censor. A reporter who filed a story with his paper nor station, with out having it censored first was court marshalled. They would be tried by a military courts marshall. They were also paid by the military. They were in fact drafted members of the us army. In the European theater they has what ever access Eisenhower said they had today. And they had to get Military approval to report anything. In the Pacific theatre MacArthur was their boss. He was their commander.

War correspondents in world war II came under the UNIFORM CODE OF MILITARY JUSTICE. That means they had no constitutional rights to civilian justice. If Eisenhower or MacArthur wanted one of them shot, he would have been shot. That is the freedom they had in WWII.

That is the truth and Rather is a liar. He just thinks that you are too dump to know he is lying.
