Dan Rather

Parental Advisory - Blog may contain harsh, but accurate, words

Dan Rather was a prick. He new the length of his Johnson and was unafraid of letting it dangle infront of other journalists. Since so much of American TV news is dominated by tiny peckered, prettyboys, waiting to have their tiny lizards stroked by Bush, and his masturbation machine, the departure of Rather was predictable.
Snapping back at Nixon or Bush Senior is a mark of self respect. Why would you praise a journalist if he/she spends all their career bent over giving head to all the power elite in the nation? I am sure CBS is looking for some dumbshit who looks good on the tube and is well connected in the Washington DC party scene.
Dan Rather is a toughguy and I am sure 60 Minutes will benefit with him back at it full time.
But what will happen when all the geriatrically challenged newsmen go? Who is gonig to replace those towers of "in your face journalism"?
By now there should be a whole host of 30-40 something killer journalists in the 60 minutes line up. Instead we have the one thousand, eighthundred and seventy five year old Wallace, who cut his teeth covering the 2nd Punic War. Or Andy Rooney who traded jibes with Homer while living at Ephesus in 325 BC. Rather was already middleaged when Cronkite was at his prime back in 1968. Remeber Rather getting banged up at the DNC convention? Probably not since we all were infants at the time, or not even born yet.
Modern TV seems to chew through "talent", for lack of a better word, in about as much time as it takes to chew a piece of gum. So who will ever gain the experience required to know what the hell they are talking about, and have what they are talking about be based in reality.
There are loads of conserva-nazis who are staunch believers in their nonsensical dribble. They will belch their narrowminded, non-reality, of otherworldly doggy dodo, until the drugs they're on require them to fix in the bathroom. Oh they will call a spade a spade alright. Mainly because they can't call a black person a nigger and get away with it. Fags, on the other hand, are fair game - for now.
So we are left with who? Wolf Blitzer and the like? For some reason I can't imagine Wolfy baby poking Bushy in the eye with his pointed questions and intellect.
