 XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX FRI NOV 30 2001 15:21:37 ET XXXXX CBS NEWS VETERAN CALLED 'TRAITOR'; WRITES BOOK EXPOSING ELITE BIAS **World Exclusive** In the first defection of its kind, a 28-year veteran of CBS NEWS has written a tell-all book which names names and exposes elite media bias and slanted coverage of events. The DRUDGE REPORT has obtained the first copy of BIAS, A CBS INSIDER EXPOSES HOW THE MEDIA DISTORT THE NEWS -- an explosive new work by CBS NEWS veteran Bernard Goldberg. The book set for release in January, presents an unprecedented blueprint of media bias as documented by an insider. "Bernie Goldberg is a G-ddamn traitor," a CBS NEWS executive said late Friday. "The book is trash written by a bitter man who is now determined to settle a score." Writing that he's never voted for a Republican for elected office, Goldberg exposes the bias he witnessed first hand during the nearly three decades he spent at the network. Goldberg zeros in on CBS NEWS anchor Dan Rather and current CBS NEWS President Andrew Heyward, who is quoted as saying: "Look Bernie, of course there's a liberal bias in the news. All the networks tilt left." MORE The book's pending release has caused a desperate scramble among media players trying to learn its content. WASHINGTON POST media critic Howard Kurtz is preparing a summary based on transcripts for Monday runs. Expanding on a pair of op-ed columns penned for the WALL STREET JOURNAL, Goldberg goes 223 pages on his personal war story from the newsroom battlefront. Anchorman Rather is described as being in a state of "fury" at Goldberg's pending tell-all.
