But I can’t give a link because it’s not online.
In the section titled “Newsmakers,” on page A2, is this:
CBS News anchor Dan Rather has decided not to attend the Lone Star Emmy Awards here as originally planned. The Oct. 16 event, honoring the best in Texas television news, will be at the Hilton Americas-Houston. “He would rather the spotlight be placed on the nominees and winners than on him, which it would inevitably be,” said one insider. Rather and CBS News are the subject of an investigation into what went wrong in the handling of a story questioning the military service of President Bush. The story made use of documents that were not fully authenticated.
Not to mention the documents were FAKE!
How funny is that? Yeah, the only problem with that breaking-news story is that the documents weren’t authenticated.
One can guess the people involved with Texas television news are relieved that he won’t be there.
