Dan Rather to appear on CBS air for first time in 18 years

Posted

Former “CBS Evening News” anchor Dan Rather will appear on the network for the first time in 18 years when he exited the network amid controversy over reporting on then-President George W. Bush’s military records.

Rather won’t be in the role of reporter or anchor, however. 

Instead, he’ll appear on “CBS News Sunday Morning,” sitting for an interview with correspondent Lee Cowan “about his work at CBS and his life in news.”

Rather exited “Evening” in 2005 and CBS News altogether in 2006 after allegations over a 2004 report he fronted for the short-lived “60 Minutes” spinoff “60 Minutes II” that made claims about Bush’s military record.
