Dan Rather's Final Days

From NewsMax.com: Mike Walker at The National Enquirer says that you could have predicted the Killian Memoranda fiasco early in Rather's career. Walker's history is a shocker, full of forgeries that make the Killian Memoranda positively elementary.

In the meantime, Rather is clearly on the defensive as his last broadcast comes up--and to the New York Daily News he says, "I'm not retiring; I'm just changing jobs." In your dreams, Danny Boy. You don't even know that Fifty-nine-and-a-half Minutes Too Late on Wednesday will ever see another season.

Unrepentant and defiant--and tragic, considering how wrong he was and is.
