This still doesn’t sound like much of a bargain, but here’s the deal.

Media Equalizer editor-in-chief Brian Maloney reports that Udemy, “the world’s largest online learning marketplace,” is offering an online course taught by Dan Rather. The four-hour course, “Dan Rather on Journalism & Finding the Truth in the News,” is currently on offer for 93 percent off — that’s just ten bucks to learn about truth in the news straight from Dan Rather.

Yes, included among the 34 lectures is a nine-minute talk on “The Killian Documents,” in which Rather “discusses the rise of the internet as it related to journalism and his reporting on George W. Bush’s military service.”
