#1 Billshit! Him and Cronkite and the others have always been for (and members of) the liberal elite.

CF : You may not be old enough to remember, but, there was an AFTRA strike in the late 1960s, it affected the on camera newsmen. Chet Huntley, Republican, refused to strike, croossed the picket line, and continued to brooadcast the news without Brinkley for the duration of the strike.

AFTRA is the union of on-air TV personalities.
It exists to this day, even Rush is a member...

#2 Rather came to national prominence on a lie. During the JFK assasination, he broadcast a report that kids in Dallas were cheering the assasination, thereby feeding northeastern prejudice against the south.

#3 Ok BigEd, I stand corrected. And thanks whoever for moving this to page 3 where it belongs :).

#4 call me crazy - but I'm actually glad to see Rather sticking to his story. It makes them all look so stoopid and deranged. Kind of like when what's his name went off on the purple teletubbie. Just kind of lets the next generation know what they are dealing with.
