Dan Rather quotes - page 4

When Rather stormed off the CBS Evening News set in a hissy fit in 1987 because he learned that U.S. Open tennis coverage was going to bleed into the news and cost him precious face time, the network was forced into the unprecedented situation of going black for six minutes. Even being fired by CBS after the 2004 debacle in which Rather's team, in collusion with John Kerry's campaign, aired unverified documents about George W. Bush's National Guard service that were almost certainly fake, didn't teach Rather anything: He still stands by the story. (Dan Rather)
