CBS Plans Spring Retirement for Rather
Just a headline from Drudge as of 9pm Pacific with a few comments here.
Update: Here is the the New York Times article referred to by Drudge.
CBS has never disclosed a timetable for replacing Mr. Rather, who turns 73 next month and who has been the anchor of the nightly news since March 1981. But in the weeks before Sept. 8, when the Wednesday edition of "60 Minutes'' broadcast its report based on documents it now says cannot be authenticated, officials atop the network and its news division had begun discussing a transition plan, a network executive said late last week.
The article almost seems like a controlled leak to test the waters and begin the paint Rather's retirement in the right light.
