"If the documents are not what we were led to believe, I'd like to break that story," Dan Rather told Howie Kurtz in September. "Any time I'm wrong, I want to be right out front and say, 'Folks, this is what went wrong and how it went wrong.'" Well Dan Rather, you had your chance to "break that story" last night yet you stayed home. But perhaps Rather may be finally discovering what the rest of us have already figured out: 1). something doesn't become true only once Dan Rather says it's true; and 2). Rather wouldn't have been breaking any story on last night's newscast. Everyone grasped that CBS's memogate story was a fraud within days of it airing on 60 Minutes 2. We don't need a CBS commissioned report released months after the fact to confirm the obvious.
