The AP Goes Dan Rather

Kevin Aylward reports that the author of the AP report which alleges that President Bush was warned about the possibility of a levy breach used to work at CBS's 60 Minutes II.

Now, Rob at Say Anything notices that the video was selectively edited to exclude footage of Dan Brown being asked whether more resources would be needed by Michael Chertoff. The transcripts show that Brown said no.

So, a major story breaks claiming Bush was warned but fails to mention the fact that the person warning Bush declined additional resources?

Dan Rather, eat your heart out. Others commenting and worth a look: Ace, OTB, Flopping Aces, Iowa Voice, Powerline, Macsmind, Mark Noonan. Right Winged,

9 Dan Rather is the most maligned reporter in America. And for good reason. Nobody but nobody can fabricate a headline like Danny the Dope.
