I respect and empathize with reporters and editors who must compete in todays environment. And I know full well that when Ive been covering campaigns, which I still do, Ive made my mistakes and have been far from perfect. – Dan Rather
I still love following and thinking about politics. I enjoy recommending important journalism I read or see from other sources. – Dan Rather
This much we know: Journalism is not a precise science. Its, on its best day, is a crude art. We make mistakes I make mistakes. With more than 50 years as a journalist, I have at least had the opportunity to blow more stories, make more mistakes than maybe anybody in television. – Dan Rather
Now, I know you expected me to say that, well, I just kick back in the rocking chair, fished a little bit, listened to Willie Nelson tapes and watched old baseball games on the Classic Sports network. And, tell you the truth, I have done that for maybe about five total minutes. – Dan Rather
