About Rather’s Farewell Broadcast

Dan’s last performance was as weird as anyone could have wanted, including a reprise of his infamous “Courage” line.

But during his self-serving invocation of the memory of September 11 to counteract Rathergate, I realized again how much has been concealed from us about that day by the mainstream media, and one of the main reasons why LGF exists.

On Rather’s farewell broadcast I noticed two brief pieces of September 11 footage that have either never appeared before, or were shown once and then hidden behind the almost immediate media blackout on 9/11 images: 1) an appallingly clear and close shot of the second plane smashing into and through the south tower, and 2) another appallingly clear shot of the south tower’s collapse, in which you can see large segments of the building’s outer shell shearing off as the giant concrete slabs pancake downward.

How much footage is mainstream media hiding, in a misguided, arrogant attempt to protect America from itself?
