Dan Rather has decided to sue CBS News for $70 million in a wrongful termination lawsuit. The celebrity journalist left the news division in June 2006 after a 60-Minutes Memogate scandal cost several colleagues their jobs and Rather his reputation.

Memogate centered around President Bush and his time in the Texas Air National Guard and some dubious documents that were provided as evidence. The lawsuit claims that parent company Viacomm violated the terms of the contract with Dan Rather and also sought to tarnish his reputation and his ability to seek reemployment.
