#1 Wow. Everything that went down, and Dan Rather is still the principal victim in the case. Tee hee, in one way he's actually right, in that he didn't do much except sign his name to it. However, reporting something that you didn't bother to verify because you hope it's true is horrible journalism, all too common these days.

#3 Isn't that like the definition of 'Yellow Journalism'?

Sounds like Weekly World News won't hire him either - now that is damaged goods!

#6 Ahh, but the strawberries that's... that's where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I'd have produced that key if they hadn't of pulled ~~the Caine~~ me out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow ~~officers~~ CBS vice-presidents...
