Dan Rather Hits Lecture Circuit
Former CBS Anchorman Dan Rather is doing what his idol Bill Clinton did - he's hitting the lecture circuit after leaving his job post-scandal.
Move over, Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson, Ann Bancroft, C. Everett Koop and even Backstreet Boy Kevin Richardson: Dan Rather has signed with American Program Group, which claims to have the most diverse speaker roster in the lecture industry.

Besides the aforementioned, APB represents hundreds of famous names from all walks of life, and the group writes on its Web site that Rather is among its luminaries because he "has been the embodiment of the intrepid broadcast journalist."
APB calls Rather "legendary," and writes that "his appearance on David Letterman's first post-9/11 broadcast has been credited as a touchstone for American sentiment during those difficult days."
It also relates a couple of his nutty quotes from election 2000 - "We don't know whether to wind the watch or howl at the moon," for example - and mentions that he is available "for a select number of speaking engagements."
