"Sexist" Dan Rather: Moonves "Doesn't Know News"

Refusing to walk away from what he started, Dan Rather has responded to CBS CEO Leslie Moonves' accusation that the veteran newsman's critique of the "dumbed down/tarted up" Evening News was a "sexist" "cheap shot." "It doesn't have to do with Katie [Couric], it doesn't have to do with gender," Rather contended Tuesday on Fox News. "It has to do with the corporate leadership. Les Moonves knows about entertainment, but he doesn't know about news." Does he know football? Because Bo knows football. (That joke was brought to you by the year 1989.)POLL: Was Dan Rather being "sexist"? Vote here.
