Gail Shister reports CBS was so close to working out an exit deal with
Dan Rather yesterday morning that a "goodbye" piece was assigned to run on last night's "CBS Evening News."
Later in the day, Rather told his bosses he wanted to sleep on it before announcing the end of his 44-year career at the network. The announcement is expected to come today. || Related
