I sent CBS news a thank you

[mjb4]

CBS is the only true free democratic media outlet available these days. I saw dan and he looked might chipper. As if he knew he was doing a good thing. And they are. Remember to tel CBS their hard nose stories are appreciated. Tell them we don't buy the drudge crap. Drudge and other fake news sites know true journalism when they see it and they are afraid of CBS.

1. Good idea. After all we complain quickly enough.

We are always being told that Dan's ratings are slipping. I don't believe it.

We really should remember to let them know when we like
the story .

4. I have long been an admirer of Dan

He is the only newsman of stature who has come out and admitted that there are certain stories that cannot be reported in the American press today, for fear of reprisals. Granted, he said this when he was interviewed in England, but the others have made no such acknowledgement. I am glad that he got a chance to tell the truth. Also, I love his Texas similies. He had me in stitches during the 2000 presidential election coverage, despite the good/bad/good/bad news he was reporting.:D

The pun was intended, BTW. :-)

7. Do you think it might be remotely possible

that he was emotional at the time and what he said reflects that?

Nah, that couldn't happen, not at all. Nope. Never.
