As Geoffrey Dickens notes at Newsbusters, Dan Rather on the Chris Matthews Show last weekend "stepped on one mine after another in the racial minefield that exists when talking about the nation's first black President."
Are former news anchor Rather's comments as serious as a journalist describing Venezuela strongman Hugo Chavez as a dictator? Should Rather go to jail, as recommended by Hollywood star Sean Penn?
