Buh-bye!

Dan Rather is - officially - leaving CBS News.
Good riddance.
According to the CNN report, he signed off as anchor on March 9, 2005 with the "admonition 'courage'".
That's probably how he likes to see himself.
"Self-absorbed and arrogant" would have been more accurate descriptions. He was one of the figureheads of the "media-as-sole-bearer-and-deliverer-of-the-only-truth" egocentrism that has rotted what little soul the news media may have had to begin with.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Danny boy.
