"Rather's CBS Suit Dismissed"

"Rather's CBS Suit Dismissed": Today in The New York Times, Bill Carter has an article that begins, "Dan Rather's expensive attempt at vindication against his former employer CBS was repudiated Tuesday by the appellate division of New York State Supreme Court, which ruled unanimously to dismiss the $70 million lawsuit he had brought against the network in 2007."

The Los Angeles Times reports today that "Dan Rather's lawsuit against CBS dismissed; A New York appeals panel rules that a trial judge erred in allowing the newsman to pursue his case against the network; Rather's attorney vows to appeal the ruling, while CBS declares victory."

And The Associated Press reports that "Dan Rather's $70M lawsuit against CBS thrown out."
