CBS Defense of Rather Hints At Bigger Story

Mark Steyn yesterday [1]:

I was prepared to cut the poor old buffoon some slack a week ago. But Dan’s performance has grown progressively more outrageous, to the point where it’s hard not to conclude he’s colluding in the perpetuation of a massive if ludicrous fraud. Dan’s been play-acting at being a reporter for so many years now — the suspenders, the loosened tie, and all the other stuff that would look great if he were auditioning for a cheesy dinner-theater revival of ”The Front Page”; the over-the-top intros: ”Bob Schieffer, one of the best hard-nosed reporters in the business, has been working his sources. What have you managed to uncover for us, Bob?”, after which Bob reads out a DNC press release. Dan’s been doing all this so long he doesn’t seem to realize the news isn’t just a show. “
