NewsMax Poll: Dan Rather Must Resign
Millions of Americans are outraged by CBS News and Dan Rather for their obstinance in admitting they used forged documents to indict the military record of George W. Bush.
In an online survey completed this week, with more than 100,000 respondents, NewsMax readers overwhelmingly responded that Dan Rather should resign as anchor for the CBS "Evening News."
Story Continues Below
Mr. Rather's position may have been further weakened when:
a) it was revealed that CBS purposefully withheld from its '60 Minutes' program forensic experts who said the documents were fraudulent;
b) after it was clear the documents were found to be fraudulent, Rather and Company continued to argue that their story was essentially accurate; and
c) one witness, a fellow Guardsman during Bush's time in service, was not allowed to appear on the CBS program because he was "too pro-Bush."
But the NewsMax poll results show that the American people have not been fooled by CBS. The Tiffany Network's credibility may be completely lost – unless Dan Rather accepts responsibility and resigns.
Here are the NewsMax Poll Results:
1) Do you believe CBS and Dan Rather used forged documents to make allegations about George Bush's National Guard service?
Yes - 98.27%
No - 1.73%
2) Do you agree with Dan Rather that his story questioning George Bush's service is still true?
Agree - 2.62%
Disagree - 97.38%
3) Should Dan Rather resign over the CBS story that used these questionable documents?
Yes - 94.05% No - 5.95%
4) Who do you believe most about their account of their military record?
Bush - 87.74% Kerry - 1.39% Both - 4.35% Neither - 6.52%
