Red Jen Psaki invites disgraced clown Dan Rather back to White House press room

{... Rather was subsequently removed from the anchor desk before leaving CBS News for good in 2006 after 44 years. The departure wasn’t without controversy – Rather filed a $70 million lawsuit against the news network, a claim that was eventually dismissed. ...}

That is well within the definition of "being fired", and it was totally illegal because Rather's news report on Bush not showing up for his National Guard role is well documented.
 
LMAO! This should be good...


White House press secretary Jen Psaki tweeted Wednesday former news anchor Dan Rather is welcome in the White House press briefing room “anytime,” noting “she may regret” the invitation.

Psaki’s response originated from Rather’s tweet at Psaki, which praised her for reminding him of his “daily” White House beat. “Would be fun to find my way back to the briefing room again the future,” he prodded.

Psaki responded by saying, “I may regret this, but you are welcome anytime! there is always a seat for @DanRather in the briefing room.”

What’s your issue with this... besides wanting to project, whine and name call??

As I said, I have no issue with it. I think it's absolutely right and perfect that a scumbag like Rather, who was fired for lying, should be back in the press room while Joe Biden is president. It is most fitting.
Oh good, I have no problem with it either. Why did you start a thread about it? Just so you could project and name call?

Get lost, asswipe.

Dan Rather still stands by the CBS News report that got him fired, nearly a decade and one feature film later.
The former anchor’s reputation was tarnished after the accuracy of his 2004 story questioning President George W. Bush‘s military service was publicly disputed by the leader’s administration. The entire saga was recently dramatized on the big screen in Truth, starring Robert Redford as Rather.
“We reported a true story. We didn’t do it perfectly,” the 84-year-old recently told The Hollywood Reporter. “We made some mistakes of getting to the truth. But that didn’t change the truth of what we reported.”
Rather and his producer Mary Mapes (played by Cate Blanchett in Truth) aired a story that alleged that Bush went AWOL during his time in the Texas Air National Guard. The Bush administration charged that the documents used as the basis for the report were inauthentic, leading to an independent investigation that ultimately concluded that the piece disregarded “fundamental journalistic principles.” The documents were not, however, ever proved to be forgeries.

Dan Rather was fired but should not have been.
The evidence is Bush failed to show up for his National Guard duties.

It was claimed the documents he used were forgeries due to the use of a proportional font, but many printers back then, like the IBM Selectrics, had proportional font capabilities. They were just not as common as the uniform spacing printers.

Rather literally used fake documents...lol. That's unacceptable, by any journalistic standard.

Wrong. While the documents can't be proven to be real...

Ok, stop right there. If they can't be proven to be real, then they're fake.
 
First he is not disgraced, no biggy >the humor is ,this is from the party that had Rush the biggest liar in the Media, him being buried is the best thing that could happen for this great country. , the hate Nazi Hannity and there main source is Fox Crap news . Biggest liar media group by all standards.
NOT DISGRACED? Where has Dan Rather been since he was fired by CBS in 2006 for his blatant and
egregious lies about George Bush, if he is not disgraced and untouchable as a media authority?

You can save yourself a lot of embarrassment and shame if you'd stop posting such brainless trash.
Try thinking, sometime. See how it feels.
hey brainless trash , when can this even be consider when Rather was never fired. You have to catch up if you want to play your games with me.

Yes Rather was fired, and it was illegal.

How was it illegal?

Anyone else you chose to hate and want to libel?

Are you claiming CBS didn't fire Rather for lying?
 
I think this is great, actually. There's nothing that better represents Joe Biden's administration than a disgraced former reporter who lost his job over a fake story he pushed because he was mad at the president.

LOL

Why did CBS fire Rather?
No the question is since Rush Hanity Ingraham's and Carlson are 100 times worse then Rather, why would we even take your silliness seriously.

I knew you would dodge that question. You're a rube.

LOL
Ok ace tell me why your comment needs any consideration since CBS did not fire Rather. Nor was he fired at all.

Stop lying for the corporate media;

In 1981, Rather was promoted to news anchor for the CBS Evening News, a role he occupied for 24 years. Along with Peter Jennings at ABC News and Tom Brokaw at NBC News, he was one of the "Big Three" nightly news anchors in the U.S. from the 1980s through the early 2000s. He frequently contributed to CBS's weekly news magazine, 60 Minutes. Within a year of Brokaw's retirement and Jennings's death, Rather left the anchor desk in 2005 following the Killian documents controversy, in which he presented unauthenticated documents in a news report on President George W. Bush's Vietnam War–era service in the National Guard. He continued to work with CBS until 2006, when he was abruptly fired.






HERE IS THE BEST PART FROM YOUR OWN SIGHT < WHAT A WAY TO BURY YOU BIG TIME< USING YOUR OWN SOURCE
Rather retired as the anchorman and Managing Editor of the CBS Evening News in 2005; his last broadcast was Wednesday, March 9, 2005.[68] He had worked as the anchorman for 24 full years, the longest tenure of anyone in American television history, and for a short time, continued to work as a correspondent for 60 Minutes. Bob Schieffe
Dan Rather, who narrated the report, announced in November that he would step down as anchor of "CBS Evening News." He says the timing has nothing to do with the investigation. Four CBS Officials Fired

There is also a comparison that comes to mind between Lara Logan's Benghazi piece and the 2004 story that got Mapes fired and ultimately led to Dan Rather's retirement from the network.


Sept. 8, 2004 – A 60 Minutes II report questioning President George W. Bush’s Air National Guard service airs. Later that month, Rather says he can no longer vouch for documents on which the story was based and apologizes for "a mistake in judgment."


Nov. 23, 2004 – Rather announces his retirement as anchor of CBS Evening News. He anchors his final show on March 9 of the following year.


June 20, 2006 – CBS News and Sports President Sean McManus announces Rather will leave CBS.

You probably still think Rather's AWOL story is true...lol

It was and is true.
Rather forged nothing.
The claims against Rather have been proven false.

It's never been proven that George W. Bush was absent without leave from his unit. Rather used faked docs to smear a sitting POTUS.
Not a clue, you people are a joke , he wasn't president at the time.

EXACTLY! I'm no fan whatsoever of George Bush but what Dan Rather did to try and nail
Bush was cheap and low and a court reaffirmed Rather's firing.

Get a life.
Hating bush was honest and understandable. . If Rather was swayed by it in his position it was a mistake , I believe what he said is true.

Remember that one time....when Trump and "THE RIGHT WING MEDIA" tried to smear Obama by claiming he wasn't born in the US.....with Trump even lying and claiming he hired investigators and they found out amazing things about it??

Remember how still to this day, you Trumpers still tell that lie or try to pretend it wasn't a big deal??


Yea, that was cool....
