People will not forgive him for his sinister attack on the President of the United States as he waited for him to "break". ___________________________________________________ Nakano comments: There are more important reasons for Dan Rather not to be forgiven. He was a part of a very different and darker "sinister attack on a President". Dan Rather was the only news reporter who actually saw President John Kennedy's assassination. News reporters were riding in vehicles in the motorcade, but they did not see the shooting. Their vehicles had not turned the corner into Dealey Plaza. But Dan Rather wasn't in the motorcade. He was standing on the sidewalk on the north side of Elm street, just before the famous "triple underpass". In a CBS Radio live interview, Rather said that he: "had a clear and unobstructed view, that he was looking directly at President Kennedy when he was shot." Rather said he saw the President "thrown violently forward...almost into the seat in front of him" by the impact of the bullets. Rather's eye-witness report supported the Warren Commission's conclusion that the shots had been fired from behind the President's limousine; and from the Texas School Book Depository Building. Rather's eye-witness report, and his report on the killing of Lee Harvey Oswald, launched a meteoric rise in his career. Shortly after the Kennedy assassination, CBS promoted Dan Rather from an obscure network position in Houston, to become the CBS White House Correspondent. After covering Lyndon Johnson's White House, Rather went on to be one of the Program Hosts on CBS "60 Minutes". Then when Walter Cronkite retired, Rather was given the top job at CBS as Anchor of the CBS Evening News. But wait a minute. Dan Rather reported he saw John Kennedy "thrown violently forward". That isn't what happened at all. The Zapruder film of the assassination clearly shows John Kennedy being thrown violently BACK AND TO THE LEFT! This is just the opposite of what Rather reported. The Zapruder film shows that Dan Rather LIED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE! Of course the People didn't know it, because they were not allowed to see the Zapruder film until several years after the assassination. Rather wrote a book entitled: "The Camera Doesn't Blink" What grim irony in that title. Nakano __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
