CBS: Rather Not Here
I'm not gloating. Are you? We have more class than that, don't we? Well, we should.
Here's the story of Dan Rather's final farewell with CBS:
Veteran Newsman Exits CBS After 44 Years With Tiffany Network
New York, June 20, 2006
Like Nixon was to Dan Rather, Dan Rather is to us. We won't have him to kick around anymore. We'll miss his legacy, his Ratherisms, and his "fake but accurate" memos. But, CBS will give us a new line of liberals to take up his cause and provide us with new material.
So, as a last sign off to Dan Rather: Courage...and, don't forget that frequency.

Thanks, Texas Fred. I don't understand the technical aspects of what you wrote, but I did it. I hope it was good.

That "What's the frequency, Kenneth" thing always did creep me out.

Why would you gloat? For the past few months, Dan Rather has been nowhere to be seen. Now, he will get a nightly news job on HDNet. It may be a smaller audience, but it is growing rapidly. Dan will be around for many more years.

I am really not gloating. I was just making a wise crack. However, Rather has lost his crediblity with everyone except those who still listen to Air America.
