AGREED!

I totally agree 👍. I’ve watched him for many years as a news anchor, reporter and journalist. In the words of Tina Turner “He’s simply the best”! I can’t wait for the documentary to come on Netflix & the interview on CBS.

I am looking forward to the Dan Rather documentary. This whole experience I have had on Steady has helped me to understand the world as it is now and it has given me hope that the world can get better. Thanks Dan

This came through just as I finished watching the profile on CBS Sunday Morning, and was texting friends to say, "May we all be so fortunate as to be as engaged and living in purpose as Mr. Rather is at 92. We are looking forward with you!

Yes, looking forward as Dan is because he brings us the story so we can know what is happening on the cutting edge of our current times. He gives us the knowledge and hope to look ahead.

Kudos to Dan, and to CBS for the profile. No better time to be speaking, and writing, truth to power as well as truth to the powerless. Onward./.

I just watched it. You were/are one of the few reporters that I have always trusted.

Absolutely the same here. And Ted Koeppel. I would love to see Dan rather's current works spread as far and wide as we can spread them. I think many people who don't currently have access to his work, but who also trusted him, would understand better what's actually going on now. And I think a brand new set of people who aren't familiar with Dan Rather would finally hear some truth they could know what's truth because of the way he presents it.

Thanks for the update. Dan really is one of the finest journalists ever. So glad that he is being recognized in this way so many years after he was off the air!

My smile is so big it hurts my face. Thank you, Dan Rather! I'm behind you seven years and appreciate this new format of journalism you're faithfully, steadily serving us. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. --Judy in PA.

I've always believed and trusted in Mr. Dan Rather! From the first time I saw you in Vietnam on Walter's newscast and ever since. I grew up believing you and it never waivered.
