At last, the answer to the question no one was asking: “I wonder what Dan Rather thinks about this election?” The former CBS Evening News anchor must be aware that a new generation of journalists is hard at work spinning things for the Democrats more blatantly than he ever could, but his inner scold wants America to know that “history is watching.”
Our actions in this election will be studied for a long time. I suspect its verdict will be harsh. #historyiswatching

Who invited this guy to 2016?
@Scout66com I suspect that history will say your era began the decline of journalism and you had a lot to do with that

your actions of #mediabias #douchebaggery #liar #ethicallychallenged have been studied for a long time. The verdict is in #guilty

I wonder how history will judge a disgraced "news" anchor who dishonestly tried to destroy a U.S. President?

So, people are still kind of sore about that whole “fake but accurate” thing?
It will certainly be harsh on you, and deservedly so, @DanRather. You made an ass of yourself again. Go find a tornado to video.

Remember when you presented phony documents about GW Bush weeks before an election? You were exposed as a leftist and as a fraud.

You are the pioneer of the grotesquely biased third world journalism we have today. There are no ethics. Journalism is dead.

so frustrated to realize how your generation used the media to manipulate the general public. Thank goodness for the Internet

We are watching and judging the media. We will remember. Your legacy.

History isn't "watching". That statement proves you attempt to "create" history.
