Blather from RatherIf a frog had any sense, he'd
get out of the blender.
"News is something people need to know which someone, somewhere, doesn’t want them to know,” Rather said. "All the rest is advertising.”Okay, Dan, if you say so. Then election results, the weather, sports scores, riots, etc., aren't news.
Rather - who was driven from his anchor seat largely because bloggers and other "new media” outlets, such as NewsMax.com, exposed his use of forged documents last year to falsely attack President Bush of shirking National Guard duty - says that such media sources should be viewed critically.
"You need to ask yourself: Is more better, and is all that calls itself news really news?" said Rather, who turned 74 this week.Well, Dan we know that you're not news. You're his-to-ry.
