My letter to CBS:
Neither George Bush's nor John Kerry's military records interest me with regards to the upcoming election. Actually, they don't interest me at all. I'm not a great fan of either man, politically or otherwise.
However, I am a great fan of playing fair, and of building and exhibiting decent "character," the definition of which includes accepting the possibility that one may have made a mistake, admitting this when confronted with the evidence, doing one's very best to satisfy anyone harmed or offended, and committing to doing better from this point forward.
I am not satisfied that CBS or Dan Rather have done anything along these lines with regards to the TANG memo fiasco. I feel that CBS and Rather have done something that I despise in politicians, or news organizations, which is to assume that I'm stupid.
"60 Minutes" was once an interesting, entertaining, and reputable news source for me. I doubt I'll ever trust it, or watch it, again.
