Dan Rather

It seems to be a contest this week for which disgraced "news" man can sound more ridiculous on Twitter -- Dan Rather or Keith Olbermann? Is it Rather on "Let's Go Brandon"? Or is it Keith whacking at Mitt Romney's family Christmas photo? 

Some journalists really have no sense of irony. And Dan Rather is one of them. The disgraced former CBS Evening News host, who lost his anchoring slot after using faulty documents in a botched hit on then-President George W. Bush in 2004, is angry at Jon Stewart for his very public rant that, of course, Covid could have come from a lab leak in Wuhan. Writing on Steady…

This week, an attempt by CBS’s 60 Minutes to destroy Ron DeSantis blew up as more details emerged over just how shoddy the network’s reporting was. Without evidence, 60 Minutes tried to suggest the Florida Republican Governor operated a pay to play scheme with a supermarket chain on vaccine distribution.

On Wednesday's CNN Tonight, Don Lemon gave a forum to disgraced former CBS News anchor and frequent guest Dan Rather to rant about the new gun laws that he'd like to see passed, claiming that the U.S. is getting a bad "reputation" all over the world for not dealing with its problems. Rather even eventually seemed to hint at going further and confiscating guns later after enacting more…

Talk about your Bizarro World. Up is down. Right is wrong. Dan Rather has a journalism award named after him. Fox News on Wednesday reported that the University of Texas named an award after the disgraced ex-CBS News anchor. David Rutz wrote, “UT's Moody College of…

Disgraced ex-CBS anchor Dan Rather has been celebrated by the Left in recent years as a wizened old master of social media. The latest example is Lee Moran of HuffPost in a tribute titled "Dan Rather Has A Pithy Putdown For Donald Trump’s Postelection Antics: The veteran newsman has zinged the president time and again on Twitter this month." It included several "zingers" that could have been…

After the 2000 Presidential election, TV journalists indulged losing candidate Al Gore’s protracted attempts to overturn the election, treating his lawsuits and requested recounts with great respect. Yet the same media today are exasperated by President Trump’s refusal to concede. Pundits incuriously dismiss the Trump campaign’s lawsuits as “frivolous” and the recounts as “pointless,”…

Watching the latest Reliable Sources can seem like a never-ending, very repetitive nightmare, where CNN host Brian Stelter is bringing on disgraced liar Dan Rather again for yet another exploration of how President Trump is mentally unstable, and how the press must get him removed from office like a nasty boil. Rather said that he's "a little bit concerned with the press under Trump,…

Appearing on MSNBC's AM Joy show, Dan Rather says the election is a choice between "white supremacy," and "freedom and democracy." He tells guest host Jonathan Capehart that it is "very realistic" to be afraid that President Trump will win. When talk turns to an allegation by a Department of Homeland Security "whistleblower" that he was pressured to downplay facts that President Trump…

On Tuesday's Amanpour & Co. on PBS and CNN International, Daily Beast News columnist Margaret Carlson lamented the dominant left-leaning media's diminished hold over politicians as she spoke during a segment hosted by her ex-boss, former Time magazine editor Walter Isaacson.

On Friday's CNN Tonight, Don Lemon presided over a panel whose members bashed President Donald Trump over his handling of the George Floyd-inspired protests. After former CBS News anchor Dan Rather accused several Republican presidents of "playing the race card," CNN presidential historian Douglas Brinkley likened President Trump to the founder of the American Nazi Party, George…
