Summary: Featured speakers/guests:
A reissue of my in-depth interview with the legendary broadcast journalist about his life and times...and ours...in which he talks about many of the issues that are in his new book "Rather Outspoken"...including the firestorm over the investigative piece about George W. Bush that led to his acrimonious break with CBS News after 44 years. In this program, Dan talks about the growing danger to a free and independent press as a result of corporate consolidation and "Hollywoodization" of the news...the true legacy of Edward R. Murrow... the background to that iconic moment in 1974 when President Nixon asked Dan if he was "running for something" and Dan replied " No sir, Mr. President. Are you?"...the anthrax attack on his office overlooking the CBS Newsroom at The Broadcast Center...and yes,Dan will take you step by step through the investigation into George W. Bush's service record in The National Guard during the Vietnam era and the furious aftermath to try to discredit the story and him. This interview was conducted by Paul Fischer, a Pacifica Radio/ and CBS Evening News veteran earlier this year  Paul Fischer writer/host interviews Dan Rather
