the businessmen dare not interfere
"There is no way that the corporate managers and owners would allow the News Division to carry on some kind of vendetta. There are billions of dollars on the line with these stations. The owned stations make much more money than the network news or entertainment divisions do. And the networks are run by businessmen -- not journalists."
- DeltAlum
With all due respect to our moderator, the businessmen dare not interfere, suggest, lead, or influence the "news" division. There have been cases where "businessmen" interfered, and the newsmen rightly SCREAM, yell, go public, claim freedom of the press, and maybe even quit
Of course, Dan Rather (who participated in a Democrat fund raiser in the Texas county dominated by one of the lead sources in this affair) probably doesn't have the gonads to stand up. He just wants to hang on till retirement time in '05.
