There's a recent DVD release (documentary?) regarding such topic - Truth (2015):

Quote:Newsroom drama detailing the 2004 CBS 60 Minutes report investigating then-President George W. Bush's military service, and the subsequent firestorm of criticism that cost anchor Dan Rather and producer Mary Mapes their careers.
I haven't seen it yet, but will real soon.
