CBS Spurns Dan Rather in JFK Coverage


Dan Rather, who was in Dallas when John F. Kennedy was assassinated, and covered the story for CBS, won’t be included in the network’s coverage of the 50th anniversary of JFK’s death. Instead, NBC has him booked on the Today show. It’s a sign the bitterness hasn’t faded between CBS and Rather after his messy exit from the network following his 2004 story about President George W. Bush’s military service. AP story here.
