Rather’s Lawsuit Shows Role of G.O.P. in Inquiry
Seems as if this lawsuit not only still has some life to it, but some perhaps rather interesting twists as well:
"Rather’s Lawsuit Shows Role of G.O.P. in Inquiry
When Dan Rather filed suit against CBS 14 months ago — claiming, among other things, that his former employer had commissioned a politically biased investigation into his work on a “60 Minutes” segment about President Bush’s National Guard service — the network predicted the quick and favorable dismissal of the case, which it derided as “old news.”
So far, Mr. Rather has spent more than $2 million of his own money on the suit. And according to documents filed recently in court, he may be getting something for his money."
