Rather kills "60 Minutes II"

Broadcasting & Cable Mag - Sweating Bush II at CBS


By Staff -- Broadcasting & Cable, 11/7/2004 11:14:00 PM

Players involved in the notorious 60 Minutes II story, reported by Dan Rather and employing dubious documents regarding President Bush’s National Guard service, may have been rooting for a John Kerry victory. The buzz inside CBS is that the show got a reprieve last spring with its exclusive report on the abuse of Iraqi prisoners by U.S. soldiers at the Abu Ghraib prison. That piece was produced by Mary Mapes — the prime mover behind the notorious Bush/National Guard story. Now it could turn out that the same producer who saved '60 Junior' from the executioner’s axe helped put the show back on the chopping block.
