Blogger Calls For Dan Rather to Resign

Posted By Blackfive

In light of the forgeries, Annika is getting the ball rolling and calling for Dan Rather to resign from CBS (he should keep his day job providing PR for the Kerry Campaign, though).

Here is what she thinks we should do:

Go to the CBS News website, at:

http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/home/main100.shtml

Scroll all the way to the very bottom and click on the "Contact Us" link. A simple form will appear in a pop-up window.

Write a very short, polite expression of your opinion and request that Dan Rather resign as anchorman of CBS News.

i would suggest being very brief, and polite. Don't label the message as a complaint, instead use the comment, suggestion or request button, as i did.

I have been following the CBS News coverage of the Killian memos with interest.

Now that it is clear that most if not all of the memos are forgeries, I cannot see any reason for Dan Rather to remain employed as anchorman of the CBS Evening News.

Every day that Mr. Rather remains as the face of CBS News brings further lost credibility to your once great news organization. Please forward this message to the appropriate person, as my request that Mr. Rather resign as soon as possible.

I would also suggest that you tell your friends to also send similar messages to CBS News. Copy and paste this post into an email if you want.

Just sent my letter.

» Burn from TacJammer
To: Dan Rather CC: Chairman, Federal Elections Commission It's pretty clear that your source (the Kerry campaign?) for the Bush memos has burned you. Badly. If there's one thing I know journalists don't like, it's being "played" by their sources.... [Read More]
