Well then I guess if it's on all the other news channels it must be fact then.

Like I stated in my first post I was too busy with school today to really catch any news. I just went by the original statement that it was Dredge and ABC. (which are the sources the others are probably using.)

Faux News does not surprise me in using this.

NBC, the news source I personally prefer over anyone else, using this, shows me there maybe some fact to it.

As for my defense of Rather, just so noone says I defended Rather. I stated I would trust him over Dredge. I lost respect for Dan rather back in the 80's when he walked off during a news broadcast that had like 7 minutes left to go over something that didn't seem that important. (Can't remember what it was, but I'm sure someone on here will find it.)

I will defend CBS though, because they have been pretty reliable. Although they hold onto correspondants way way too long. How old is the youngest anchor on 60 Minutes anyway?

Also I've heard from people, I trust, that have met/known him and they all have said he is an arrogant asshole.

I still say this is just more of the neverending attack on Viacom for whatever reason.

PS for those that get irate at some, I highly suggest using it... I have recently found the ignore post feature to work quite nicely, and I do not believe I am missing any facts. I have done it to only 1 but it is so much nicer now, because most posters on here even if we don't agree provide facts and treat others with due respect.
