NEW YORK — Dan Rather has filed an amended lawsuit against CBS that says other TV networks refused to hire him because of the damage executives at his former company did to his reputation after a disputed 2004 report on President Bush’s military service.
Rather’s lawyer, Martin R. Gold, said new papers were filed because a judge said in April that the initial lawsuit did not specify how CBS injured Rather in his occupation. The judge said the veteran newsman could submit an amended complaint.
