IT AIN’T OVER ‘TIL…
…the disgruntled staffers sing. Ratherbiased.com alerts us to the latest issue of New York magazine, which has an inside look at the internal strife at CBS News. Among the juicy tidbits the magazine revealed, Ratherbiased.com reports:
*Dan Rather has been observed wandering the hallways of CBS News muttering “elections have consequences,” referring to Bush-Kerry presidential race.
*Many within CBS News believe Rather and CBS News president Andrew Heyward should quit out of honor. Says one executive of Rather: “Should Dan resign for his part in this story? Yes. Will he? No. It’s just not his style.” As for Heyward, Blum points out that in the seven years that Betsy West, Heyward’s assistant vice president, worked for him, she never did anything that Heyward didn’t require her to do. “The fish stinks from the head,” he concludes.
*Don Hewitt, the founder of “60 Minutes,” on the scandal: “This is the worst thing I’ve ever seen in 55 years of working for CBS News.”
Good reading.
