Nearly two decades have passed since Dan Rather bid farewell as anchor and managing editor of the "CBS Evening News," concluding a 44-year tenure at the "Eye Network."
During his time there, Rather covered wars, politics, and the JFK assassination, while also mentoring a budding correspondent named Lee Cowan, who interviewed him on "CBS Sunday Morning" for his return to the network after being fired in 2005.
Now at 92, Rather sits down with Cowan to reflect on his distinguished career, the notorious story that tarnished his reputation (and CBS's), and his life after CBS, which has involved book writing and connecting with a younger audience through social media.
Also, while you're here, reader Murdoch sent me Rather's KHOU 11 1961 Hurricane Carla news highlights.
