Dan Rather is suing CBS and Viacom for $70,000,000, saying they intentionally mishandled the flap over his intentional misreporting of President Bush's service with the Texas Air National Guard. Now that takes a lot of nerves!
You intentionally announce on national television a story in which you have intentionally lied with the motive of intentionally affecting a national election and then you sue because someone else intentionally mishandles the incident? You try to destroy one man's life and have a fit because you were supposedly mistreated? Get real! My momma always told me when I got myself into a jam, “You made your bed, now sleep in it.”
Yes, CBS and Viacom mishandled the incident. Whether it was intentional or not, I cannot judge. However, had they done what they should have done they would have summarily dismissed you. That they allowed you to retire with some dignity was gracious on their part. So is that why you are suing them? It seems to me, Dan Rather, that you should crawl in a hole and stay there. We've heard enough from you and we've heard enough of you. You should have been drawn-and-quartered — that's what you deserved.
