Pensito Review » Dan Rather May Call Bush 41 and 43 to Testify in CBS Suit

As a fan of CBS news (a cousin produced both Democrat and Republican convention coverages for them in 1976, he earlier a director of NBC’s “Huntley and Brinkley” and a high school acquaintance is a “street reporter” for CBS in New York City) I think we should reflect on the lawsuit General Westmoreland filed for millions against the whole NBC network over an NBC news retrospective which alleged “body counts” were manipulated during the Vietnam War. He settled for an undisclosed amount. It is no coincidence, in my estimation that General Colin Powell a great American left the administration and his son, the former chief of the FCC also “left the building”. Now we have a Federal Censorship Commission, with new jacked-up fines and an apparent new imperious “bridge” taking the world admired American independence of news coverages perhaps into the iceberg of intolerance.
