The Media Research Center resurfaced an episode of a CBS episode of “48 Hours” on Thursday, where host Dan Rather analyzed the numerous hazards of mass immigration.<\/p>\n

The Media Research Center, a conservative watchdog group which maintains a massive archive of news going back decades, is working on a report about a resurfaced TV special from CBS. CBS has been in the news in recent weeks for a report where it was accused of downplaying the amount of violent criminals<\/a> among the millions of illegal immigrants now residing in America.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This comes as America is in the midst of a national debate about immigration \u2014 both legal and illegal \u2014 and its impact on America as a country.<\/p>\n

NewsBusters senior research analyst Bill D\u2019Agostino, who works for a division of the Media Research Center, released an extensive thread summarizing his findings in the archived footage.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“1995: CBS\u2019s Dan Rather warns that Americans are being \u2018replaced by foreigners.\u2019 I found an entire one-hour episode of CBS\u2019s 48 Hours about the harms of both legal and illegal immigration, titled \u2018Slamming the door,\u2019” D\u2019Agostino wrote Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a clip he shared of a preview for the special, Rather narrated over clips of people voicing their concerns about mass legal and illegal immigration, and summarized, “Tonight on \u201948 Hours,\u2019 anger over immigration, Americans fired and replaced by foreigners, schools and hospitals strained to the limit, criminal aliens on our streets. Should America slam the door?”<\/p>\n

One major clip D\u2019Agostino shared in the thread from the special itself was of Rather summarizing the core concerns about mass immigration \u2013 both legal and illegal.<\/p>\n

“When\u2019s the last time you heard Dan Rather talk like this?” D\u2019Agostino asked<\/a>. The former CBS anchor is an outspoken progressive and was often accused of exhibiting liberal bias during his CBS tenure.<\/p>\n

The clip also comes after a resurfaced 2010 clip of then-President Barack Obama defending deportations<\/a>. The same year as the 1995 CBS broadcast, then-President Bill Clinton decried “the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country” during his State of the Union address.<\/p>\n

After referring to America as a “melting pot,” Rather warned in the 1995 broadcast, “the melting pot may be boiling over.”<\/p>\n

“In the next 48 hours, an estimated 6,000 immigrants \u2014 both legal and illegal \u2014 will arrive in this country, straining our ability to handle this flood of newcomers,” Rather said. “And now, this nation of immigrants faces a painful question: should immigration be slowed, or even stopped?”<\/p>\n

The news host went on to say, “It\u2019s a question more Americans are asking, as they view these new arrivals with concern, and even in some quarters, outrage.”<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s hard to believe, but back before Democrats decided to start importing voters, broadcast journalists sometimes covered immigration from the perspective of Americans,” D\u2019Agostino responded to the clip.<\/p>\n

Billionaire X owner Elon Musk, who has been critical of both legal and illegal immigration, replied, “Those days are long gone.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
