NEW YORK, April 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Justice Ira Gammerman of
the Supreme Court of the State of New York today dismissed the majority of
claims filed by Dan Rather in his September 2007 lawsuit against CBS and
other defendants.
CBS issued the following statement in response to the judge's decision:
"We are gratified that the court has dismissed the vast majority of Mr.
Rather's claims, including the spurious claims against Mr. Redstone, Mr.
Moonves and Mr. Heyward, as well as the false charges of fraud, tortious
interference with prospective business relations, breach of good faith and
fair dealing. With respect to the few remaining claims, relevant to his
contract, there are no facts to support them, and we expect them to be
dismissed when the discovery process is complete."
