Bernard Goldberg points out a fact that many people missed in the controversy over the “Rathergate” fraudulent memos: Rather’s producer, Mary Mapes, knew all along that the premise of the report was false.

Beldar has some more thoughts on the media’s current round of Rathergate revisionism, and CBS’s “spectacularly gutless” defense against Rather’s lawsuit: Rather seeks trial to promote his revisionist history, but the world still can’t look to CBS News for the actual truth.

National Public Radio does their best to rewrite history in this shockingly disingenuous piece on the Rathergate affair, told from Dan Rather’s perspective as he openly states (and NPR doesn’t challenge) that the memos in his infamous 60 Minutes II piece were never proven to be fakes: Dan Rather Hopes ...

Four years ago, the Dreaded Throbbing Memo that haunts Dan Rather’s fevered dreams was born. UPDATE at 9/10/08 9:42:51 am: For the record, and because the mainstream media are staying away from this anniversary as if it were radioactive, here’s the post that proved the Killian memos fraudulent on ...
If they’re really going to make a movie about the Rathergate scandal, and base it on the ludicrous book by moonbat pseudo-journalist Mary Mapes, it’s going to be a bad joke. The Media Mob has learned that a team of Hollywood insiders is currently working on a screen adaptation ...

According to TVNewser, the judge in Dan Rather’s lawsuit against CBS has dismissed most of the case, leaving just the contract dispute. (Hat tip: Allahpundit.)

CBS and the New York Times stacking polls in favor of Democrats? Say it ain’t so.
Since I didn’t know that anyone had compared Little Green Footballs to Tammany Hall, I’m not too crushed by Dick Meyer’s CBS column saying they’re not doing it any more: The Decline of Blogs And Gaffes, CBS’ Dick Meyer Takes Heart In The Dithering Of Two Traditional Campaign Weapons. ...

For the 2008 election, CBS News is forging a partnership with one of the web’s most insane leftist echo chambers, a major hub of Ron Paul craziness, 9/11 Trooferism, antisemitism, and whacked out anti-Americanism: CBS, Digg Join for Campaign ‘08. NEW YORK CBSNews.com has partnered with community-driven news and ...
It looks like the judge in Dan Rather’s lawsuit against CBS may let the case go to trial. But the fascinating thing about this Associated Press article on the case is how they describe the Rathergate scandal—without even mentioning that it was based on fake documents. Rather was removed ...

I’m feeling the love from the Daily Kos Kommunity tonight, as they try again to resolve their cognitive dissonance about Dan Rather’s phony National Guard memos: Daily Kos: Rathergate: much more than meets the EYE. Note that most of this wordy Kos diary is lifted wholesale from today’s hagiographic New ...
Oh, Danny boy. Still claiming the Killian memos were “authentic.” Man, that must be a heavy burden, to relentlessly cling to an obvious fiction in front of the whole world. Dialogue: Dan Rather. The Hollywood Reporter: If this goes to court, in order for CBS to win they would ...
Dan Rather’s “fake but accurate” lawsuit against CBS has left CBS executives “mystified.” Today, in New York Supreme Court, in response to Dan Rather’s civil lawsuit, CBS filed a lengthy 30-page motion to dismiss the case. CBS executives also released a statement today, noting that they are “mystified” by ...
Oh, by the way, Dan Rather is a liar. Surprised? He claimed that he wasn’t the one who gave final approval to air the infamous faked National Guard memos—but Drudge has an excerpt from Howard Kurtz’s book (which I’ll bet doesn’t mention LGF) that shows how much Rather had invested ...

The far left’s campaign to rehabilitate the CBS Killian memos and attack the bloggers who discredited them is in full bloom today, as Sidney Blumenthal makes a ludicrous, stupid accusation in an article for Salon.com: Dan Rather stands by his story.
