Bush fired Dan Rather? That's news to me

TIME.com: Vladimir Putin, CBS News Loyalist -- Mar. 07, 2005:
'Putin thought we'd fired Dan Rather,' says a senior [Whitehouse] Administration official. 'It was like something out of 1984.'

I wonder if any of the rest of the world thinks this? How could somebody get such bad information. Putin obviously doesn't know how this democracy stuff works. The government doesn't fire news people. Just the thought of that happening gives me chills. Is this yet another reason the world dislikes the US so much. Could it be that they are just really confused. They think we're hypocrites because they don't understand what's going on? This is just further evidence that the rest of the world is crazy and that no other place in the world will ever be anything like the US.
