I totally forgot about this! In February 2003, Dan Rather appeared on Larry King Live:
Dan Rather confirmed on Thursday's Larry King Live on CNN that far-left, anti-American crusader Ramsey Clark, who has drawn up charges of impeachment against President Bush accusing him of “crimes against humanity,” was a “big help” to CBS News in landing the Saddam Hussein interview for the network.
And....AND....THIS!
CBS acknowledged that former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, who is prominent in the global anti-war movement and met with Saddam on Sunday, put in a good word for Rather in helping secure the interview. Clark has known Rather for a long time, said CBS News spokeswoman Sandra Genelius.”
This article at Media Research Center went on to state Only people as far away as Baghdad could be unfamiliar enough with CBS News to buy the idea that it has a “reputation as an independent news organization.”
They also recognized that Clark is a prominent part of the far-left collection of former communist sympathizers with ANSWER. Their Web site: http://www.internationalanswer.org/
As Michael Kelly revealed in January, “International A.N.S.W.E.R. (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) is a front group for the communist Workers World Party. The Workers World Party is, literally, a Stalinist organization.” For Kelly's January 22 column, with go to:"MarchingwithStalinists"
