Dan Rather’s story in Israel was pitched by Israel’s Foreign Ministry

Two days back we picked up the story of Dan Rather’s TV crew’s humiliation by Israeli security. Well, when am I going to learn to read? Max Blumenthal spotted this in the story:

Andrew Glazer, an Emmy-award winning producer at Dan Rather Reports, wrote that the legendary anchorman came to do a story about improving Israeli-Palestinian relations pitched by Israel’s Foreign Ministry.

It never ends.

P.S. I’d note that my favorite NPR anchor, Krista Tippett, just got back from what she calls a mindbending trip to Israel and Palestine, and suggests we must eschew politics. She’s going to be doing shows about the conflict soon. I pray she hasn’t given up on basic human rights.
