CBS: Democratic Party Shills
After completely ignoring a spate of damning revelations against prominent Bush critic Joseph Wilson, Dan Rather and his CBS colleagues are consigning another hot news item to their dust bin. After dismissing the scandal surrounding former Clinton intelligence official Sandy Berger's removal of classified material from the National Archives on Tuesday as a smear job, CBS hasn't run a story about it since.
Considered in light of the fact that CBS has not run a single report on corruption within the United Nations' oil-for-food program or about Sept. 11 commission member Jamie Gorelick while at the same time "flooding the zone" with over 80 stories about Iraqi prisoner abuse and 29 on Wilson's accusations of Republican malfeasance, Rather and company's disregard for the Berger story and newfound disinterest in the former ambassador are making it harder and harder not to think that CBS News should really call itself CBS Views.
Rather is still playing by the old rules and makes him look like a moron.
