Or, 'What was it e summer before my sixth really like to cover Vietnam?' Or, ay, I met a woman who I 'What was it really like to inter- view Saddam Hussein?"' Rather explained that about a fourth of the book also discusses the events that led up to his 2006 departure from CBS after work- ing various positions for 44 years. "Yes, in the book, there is also the unpleasant time of when I was forced to leave CBS News after reporting first Abu Ghraib, a story we broke on a worldwide basis, and following that Presi- dent George (W.) Bush's service - or lack of service - in the National Guard," he said. "I realized that if I didn't put those important times in the book, someone would say I 'ducked and dodged.'" Rather explained that he has moved on to his current job at HDNet, and is content there. "I think it's the best-sustained work I've ever done in my career ... I never lost my passion for news," he said. "So what hap- pened with the Bush story and Abu Ghraib and others is well behind me now." Rather said understanding what caused the end of his work with CBS can help others under- stand journalism. "At least to this degree, it may be interesting because it tells you some of what happens in big news organizations, what really happens behind the scenes, as opposed to what you may think happens," he said. Rather also said he thinks many people have forgotten how good journalism works. "Reporters, when they are at their best, tell tough truths," Rather said. Rather added that reporting of the civil rights movement in the 1960s is a good example of proper journalism. "I never imagined - I didn't know anybody who could imag- ine - mayors, sheriffs, county commissioners would turn high pressure hoses and attack dogs on children who were taking part in peaceful protests," Rather said. "And when those images were brought in the living room, there was repulsion - not everybody in the country - but there was a national consensus of repulsion." Rather said that people forget that journalists often must take flak when reporting controversial truths. "It's easy to forget at the time we were doing that coverage, CBS was called, 'Communist Broad- casting Company,' ... the camera crews and others took important photographs that went in the liv- ing room and resulted in a nation- al consensus of outrage," Rather said. "We tend to forget that, at that time, that coverage was con- troversial. CBS took a lot of heat ... (and) now it's an accepted part of a national conscience." Rather explained that good journalism is often contentious at the time it is reported, but is also necessary. "You learned in seventh grade civics class ... that a free press, an independent, truly independent, fiercely independent press, is the red, beating heart of freedom and democracy," Rather said. Rather added that currently, journalism in the U.S. is at risk of staying completely legitimate due to large companies with news divisions. He also hinted at big businesses cutting deals in Wash- ington. "Whether that government is being led at any given time by Republicans or Democrats, the huge international corporations now control more than 80 percent of our true national distribution of news in this country," Rather said. "They need legislation passed, they need legislation stopped, they need new regulations that benefit them, they have favors they need in Washington, the political pow- ers in Washington ... they want of course what I'm going to call sweet-heart coverage." Rather believes that there is increasing pressure on news orga- nizations to stop asking impor- tant, tough questions and that media is also shifting its focus. "We have so much important business to do in Washington," Rather said. "Entertainment ven- ues now almost completely over- whelm news venues." Anthony Kataer traveled from Detroit to attend the event and brought a bag of Rather's past books. "I love his political coverage. he's really articulate," Kater said. "Even though he's a liberal, you can't tell that by his coverage." Kataer added that though Rather brought up the controver- sial way he left CBS, he wont hold it against Rather. "I don't think we should judge him for it," he said. At the book-signing table, Rather said the 2012 election will be close. "I think the election could be tough," Rather said. "I'm not saying he will lose, but I think Obama could lose." In an interview with The Michigan Daily after the event, Rather said college students need to persevere. "Perseverance is not to be underestimated, particularly in today's climate, perseverance ... will beat education, genius any day of the week," Rather said. "And don't give up on your dreams." WINTER CLASSIC From Page 1A change to the Liquor Control Act," Wilbanks said. The Winter Classic has become a "premier event" in the sports realm and will help the economy in Ann Arbor and the surround- ing area, Ouimet said in a press release on the Michigan House Republicans website. "More than 100,000 people will contribute to our local economy by patronizing our restaurants, stay- ing in our hotels and purchasing other goods and services," he said in the release. In the release, Ouimet also acknowledged the Classic's poten- tial for making the Big House more famous than it already is. "Michigan Stadium already is one of the most recognized sport- ing facilities in the United States, and the Winter Classic will help elevate its status to a whole new fan base, both in this country and in Canada."
