    I was there sitting in the 3rd row that day. I just happened to be walking by the theater and answered a trivia question and got in not realizing it was to be his first show after the attack. It had only been one week and everyone’s emotions were still very raw and you could really feel it in the Ed Sullivan theater that day. We had all just witnessed 911 first hand, we were all stuck in Manhattan, and we were all scared and horribly saddened like we had never been before. To see David Letterman in person talking very seriously with genuine emotion to Dan Rather wasn’t something I’d ever thought I would see. I remember the moment as Dan Rather was talking and he just burst into tears. They cut to a commercial break. Here in front of my face was Dan Rather and David Letterman both crying and I looked around the theater at that very moment and saw everyone’s faces. I will never forget how that felt. I cry every time I think of it even to this day.

    On 9/11 we still had journalists who were professionals in bringing the news. Dan Rather speaks of only sleeping 4 hours a night and being in the broadcast center. He likely felt the weight of the world on his shoulders to bring news to a stunned nation. I miss him. A true professional and a gem of a man.

    I remember the appearance well. It was heartbreaking and healing all at the same time. I will ignore the idiots down post.

      +mary love I, too, remember it clearly. The lyric he quoted was "Thine alabaster cities gleam, undimmed by human tears." When he broke down sobbing, it really shook me.

      Dude yes, I broke down. I sobbed, as a kid who never cries I sobbed like I had never known myself to do. If he lost it and I’d had watched him all my life wtf was wrong with me. Once Dan Rather grieves it’s probably ok to grieve. That was my 21 year old minds frame of thought.

    mature. I'm don't think winners go around searching for a guy that blocked them so that they can reply to 8+ videos he commented on. Keep it coming though, keep confirming how l humiliated you and you can't let it go.

    actually i was referring the video, not you, and second what makes you think i'm a US citizen anyway ? i was being sarcastic on USA laws.

  • @Hyperuniverse1

    that's like saying "my ass is so sore cuz of how you verbally and systematically proved me wrong". Sure sure kid ^^, run away now.

    they're supposed to be fun? Apparently this IS the highlight of your day. I suggested you'd stop replying if l stopped mentioning your homosexuality, but you're still here. Besides, how can you "win" when I never even said I hated gays. I just said I'm not gay and it pissed you off. Doesn't mean l hate gays. And saying gaybashing remarks doesn't make anyone think that you're not gay. Get a life dude, maybe coming out is what you need, and l don't say that mockingly. You're paranoid

    K, I won't talk about that if it makes you uncomfortable, but if you stop commenting l can delete my previous comment that address what you are. Why hide yourself so much though if you so openly express what you are in other videos :/ ? Anyway. I don't see how being able to reply back means you won. What determines the winner is simply who was right, and l happened to be right but you're so upset. Jee dude, l even made you write on 8 different videos. Swallow that, shouldnt be hard for ya.

    were you referring to me? It's called freedom of speech and l'm not even an american, you seem to forget USA is not the center of the universe.

    I watched it to see what he had to say since he is going to be talking about Marijuana next Monday and well I don't trust Dan Rather since he works for THEM, the 6 people who own the Major Networks who don't' give a fuck about you or me but only THEIR OWN.
