Dan Rather Allowed to Dig Deeper

Dan Rather's lawyers have been given permission to subpoena one of the investigators CBS enlisted in 2004 to probe a faulty 60 Minutes II story about President Bush's military service, a scandal that ultimately led to the veteran newsman's early retirement as anchor of the CBS Evening News.
Rather has since sued his former bosses for breach of contract, contending they used him as a scapegoat and gave him less face time on 60 Minutes following the incident.
In arguing for the access, Rather attorney Gary Meyerhoff said in court Tuesday that Erik Rigler, who was on the independent panel that determined CBS "failed miserably" to authenticate the documents that instigated the Bush report, had access to info that Rather was not privy to during the fact-finding mission. A judge denied permission to subpoena the entire panel.
"Proving the truth of the story is all I've ever wanted," a pleased Rather said after court. Meanwhile, James Quinn, a lawyer for CBS, said his team was "happy" to allow Rather's camp speak with Rigler. "We have nothing to hide," Quinn said. "It's one of those sad cases where a person at the end of his career wants to go back after people he feels mistreated him."
