I can only imagine the uproar and outrage we would have heard the very next day had Rush Limbuagh uttered such a comment on air as did Dan Rather. Yet, 2 months later and I have not heard anything from the media at all on it.

And for all those who will defend Rather, claiming using watermelon isn’t racist, may I remind you of Los Alamitos Mayor Dean Grose who forwarded a photo depicting a watermelon patch on the White House lawn last February and was forced to resign after extensive national media coverage.
