So now we see why Dan Rather "retired"
 
So CBS didn't have to fire him along with the others.

retire with a golden parachute, or face the consequences of inventing a story, using forged documents...

oh well, at least Mapes was sufficiently shamed.

CBS News executives relied too heavily on Mapes, who only months earlier had broken the story about the Abu Ghraib prison scandal and had been investigating Bush's National Guard service since 1999
Sounds like Mary Mapes was not making friends with the bushies.

Oh, right.:rolleyes:

He should have gone years ago, now he gets the golden parachute...

Karma will get him in the end...
