Oh, That Liberal Media!
Jonah Goldberg is "Rather Grateful" that Ted Baxter is suing WJM-TV:
In 2004, at the height of the Dan Rather Memogate story, I wrote in National Review: “Across the media universe the questions pour out: Why is Dan Rather doing this to himself? Why does he drag this out? Why won’t he just come clean? Why would he let this happen in the first place? Why is CBS standing by him? Why ... why ... why?
“There is only one plausible answer: Ours is a just and decent God.”
So why has Dan returned from his paid retirement on Mark Cuban's HD-Net channel for an additional smiting from Him? Roger L. Simon blames it on "
the Culture of the Delusional Celebrity".
