The ‘journalistic’ hack who made ‘Fake News’ a household name is lashing out at his old ‘news’ haunt and their big-name hire. Dan Rather says new CBS News Editor in Chief Bari Weiss signals a ‘dark day’ for the network. Yes, we laughed out loud, too. Dude, you’re Dan Rather!

Dan, stop. We're already sold on @bariweiss.

You don't have to sell us further by telling us you don't like her.
🖕🏻
You would think that @DanRather would keep his head down after the notorious “Rathergate” scandal.

Which font did he use?

It’s amazing that Rather was brought down by a typewriter font.
Back in 2004, Rather got busted for pushing a fake story about President George W. Bush in an attempt to throw his reelection prospects. Dan’s such a good Democrat. It came crumbling down when experts established that the letter on which the whole story hinged was forged because of the font used and other details.
He was fired in 2004 after pushing a fake story about Bush faking his National Guard duty...and Rather did it to try and influence the election. pic.twitter.com/ddFFrC6vMQ

Well, whatever her credentials are, I'm pretty sure they weren't falsified... pic.twitter.com/ECSglmv6g0

I’m sorry Dan. You lied and then lied about lying until you were forced to resign in disgrace.

Didn’t CBS fire Dan Rather?

Sour grapes make terrible wine and terrible men.
There’s no wine, just Rather’s bitter whine.
As expected, many ‘journalists’ today praise Rather, further destroying their credibility in service to their Democrat Party and its leftist agendas. To sane people who cherish genuine journalism, Rather will forever be a despicable, lying joke as these comments attest.
Does Dan Rather have any fake documents to back up this statement?!
— Friend of the Program (@TheFOTP) October 10, 2025
Well if Danny is against I am for it! Maybe he doesn't like the font of the press release?

"She doesn't forge documents! How good can she be?"

Weiss could be an absolute train wreck, but nothing she could ever do will damage CBS News like Rathergate and the recent 60 Minutes Kamala Harris scandal.
One commenter noted that Weiss will have to clean out CBS News to even have a chance of erasing Rather’s legacy.
Dan Rather’s histrionic rhetoric is no different than that of the pompous and bombastic Scott Pelley’s, which was no different than that of 60 Minutes executive producer Bill Owens. All of whom can’t see their own liberal bias due to their rabid Trump hate. Bari Weiss has a huge job ahead of her, rooting out all the DNC operatives with press passes at @CBSNews

Dan Rather lost the moral authority to question journalists a long time ago

Dan Rather blocked me for reminding him how he lost his job. Thinnest of skins.
— S.Kinny (@SkinnyFilter) October 10, 2025
He is a waste of space.
— Thirteen O'Clock - Todd (@o_thirteen) October 10, 2025
The only space Rather occupies is a crumbling throne as the king of Fake News. Hopefully, Weiss will not bow to him like some many ‘journalists’ still do to this day.
