Dan Rather is done. 3 days.
 
Dan Rather is done. He was always my favorite. Sad to see him go on bottom. Peter Jennings is a douche and Tom Brokaw always seemed perfectly neutral but always seemed fake too.

Dan Rather was a great reporter, one of the few on network news not afraid to actually question Presidents.

FunForOne 03-06-2005 02:38 PM

Rather first showed his bias when Kennedy was killed.

He reported that Dallas School kids cheered when Kennedy was shot. He was trying to make the conservative texas city look like redneck fools.

It was later found out that the kids cheered when they found out that they were getting the rest of the day off from school, they hadn't been told why.

Dan Rather was told this before he aired his broadcast, he chose not to pull it.

How anyone was surprised when he was caught in the act of a felony this election cycle blows my mind.

Imagine if the conservatives got their way and only their guys were allowed to report the news:glugglug

Not my favorite at all. Glad to see him go! He used his position as a journalist to push a political agenda. Him and his ilk aren't with the energy to broadcast their message. Toss Jennings while you're at it.... A disgrace to Canada.

Dan Rather NOT please.......He always sucked...I liked him when he was on 60 Min's
but as soon as he got the anchor job. What a ass hole he became.

OG LennyT 03-06-2005 04:36 PM

He always reminds me of a drag-queen for some reason. I think its his makeup

Dan Rather rocked 48 Hours. He was always great as a reporter... the anchor desk limits them all...

Dan Rather had one obective that was hard on one side....

DaddyHalbucks 03-06-2005 05:18 PM

Dan,

You are a liberal sack of $#17 !

Don't let the door hit you on the way out!

Pornwolf 03-06-2005 05:39 PM

Dan was/is the only journalist that doesn't allow the White House spin to completely drown reality. No one else has the balls to do it. If it had to include just a bit of his personal bias so be it. I'll accept the truth with a small side of shit instead of a heaping plate of shit with a small side of truth like we get from every other news source.

The thing about journalist is that they have an extreme duty to truthfulness. The public has to trust them 100%. After they lose the trust, they are really no good.

After the first time they get caught lieing, would you use their information anymore without questioning them.

Spunky 03-06-2005 06:18 PM

I liked Dan...he was good at his job

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE 03-06-2005 06:20 PM

They killed Stern they had no problem killing Rather.

NinjaSteve 03-06-2005 07:41 PM

I like Dan Rather, and now it seems the world just might end...

yeah, and as long as he's bad mouthing a republican president, it seems you're ok with lying and forgery too. typical of your kind. :1orglaugh

ronbotx 03-07-2005 08:35 PM

Just another member of the "old" , liberal , elite media who are too dumb or senile to realize that they no longer the primary source of news and information.

Pathetic that he had to leave as a result of .."the most blindingly partisan bungle in recent journalistic history"

Good summary here by Charles Krauthammer.

Dan Rather will always be remembered for these words

'what's the frequency Kenneth?'

he was a bit of a nutjob. but definitely to sad to see him go - news anchors are part of our lives. funny thing is that i'm old enough to remember Walter Cronkite leave and I thought he was a very old man at the time and would be dead in a few years - fucker is still going strong.

FunForOne 03-07-2005 08:44 PM

Didn't he also get caught putting on fake blood while in vietnam? I vaguely remember a scandal that had something to do with that.

Actually Dan Rather made up the entire Vietnam war. They were just over there having tea. Communist bastard.
