  by alley on February 26, 2008, at 2:33PM PST What a cheap shot.  This is footage not meant to be seen by the public.  If you work in this business (like I do) this is perfectly normal behaviour for setting up a remote.  Your heroes at PBS or whatever would all be concerned about the same things.  Trust me.
  
  Fuck Harry Shearer (and that awful, over-rated, unfunny "Simpsons" while I'm at it).

  by Paneeks on January 10, 2008, at 4:17PM PST Harry, First off, you are cool. I dig you in 'TAP' and enything else that you do because you are, well, cool! But here goes dude: Dan is just being a guy who knows he is going to be cold and also bored waiting 45 mintues to do this 'lame' place they picked for his broadcast. so in my opinion, he is just making some kind conversation to pass time. Yes, he might be coming off as a typical good looking anchor man. But man, he is a good looking anchor man. And this is coming straight from my 'guy mouth' Actually I am gay even though I hate to admit it! So instead of 'guy mouth', I should just say "gay mouth"? Anyways, love your site... Do you know if Dan would want to date me? Later dude, Paneeks

  by smsstuart on December 16, 2007, at 7:28PM PST For those who can't understand "what the big deal is" have missed the point.  It's quite possible that Dan Rather is 'a nice guy'; 'a perfect gentleman', etc, but this isn't a popularity contest - or shouldn't be.  I suggest to those of you who are big defenders of Mr. Rather that you look around for the many back feeds of his news broadcasts.  You might be surprised to discover (to just scratch the surface) that this Grand Icon of News Anchors was completely clueless as to the pronunciation of 'chlamydia', its definition or anything else surrounding it.  And this from a so-called news expert.  The fact that he's fussing, prissing and preening with his hair and fabulous trench coat should confirm for one and all that 'news' was long ago jettisoned from television news.  I've come to expect this sort of unctuous display from the local news pools of "talent" but this is yet another example of why the network news ratings are tanking - no one believes this crap.  Oh, and BTW Harry, that's no rooftop, that location is Kerry Park, on Queen Anne hill, overlooking downtown Seattle, Mt. Rainier and Puget Sound, a typical cheesecake shot for local news that is conveniently located about one mile from all four local network affiliates.  (How handy).
