He’s really doing this? In the suit, filed this afternoon in State Supreme Court in Manhattan, Mr. Rather charges that CBS and its executives made him “a scapegoat” in an attempt “to pacify the White House,” though the formal complaint presents virtually no direct evidence to that effect. To buttress this claim, Mr. Rather quotes the executive who oversaw his regular segment on CBS Radio, telling Mr. Rather in November 2004 that he was losing that slot, effective immediately, because of “pressure from ‘the right wing.’ ” I think it would be unhealthy to laugh as much as this whole concept makes me want to laugh. Either Rather is a senile old fart who believes that those fraudulent documents were real, or he’s just determined to die in total and complete disgrace. This is what happens when political conviction takes over your sense of right and wrong. Maybe Rather spent so long staring into the abyss that it changed him. Maybe he was always a fraud and we just didn’t have a way to check in the old days. I dunno. What I do know is this is a terrible idea, and it won’t end well for Rather, CBS News or the Democrats. Raising all of this blatant media bias during election season cannot in any way harm the Republicans.
