How in the world does stuff like this get modded up? Checking CBS's website, he still works for them (until his announced retirement in March). So fired? No. The entire news organization replaced? That ridiculous statement doesn't even need to be rebutted, obviously the hundreds (thousands?) of employees at CBS News weren't replaced over this. I'm not going to stand up for Bush on your other points, but the comments about Rather is overblown. He wasn't running an Op-Ed piece - this was an investigative report, published on a well-respected news program. His group chose to not fully examine the evidence, knowing full well that it would come under extreme scrutiny. They failed to perform the due diligence something of this magnitued required. Are you really going to defend them for failing to adequately do their jobs?
