The New York Supreme Court appellate division dismissed Dan Rather’s $70 million lawsuit against his former employer CBS yesterday, and both sides have weighed in. But one person who hasn’t talked yet is Rather himself.

He’ll make his first comments since the dismissal tomorrow – on Fox News.

Mediaite has learned Neil Cavuto will have the exclusive interview with Rather tomorrow on his 4pmET show Your World. It will also be on his Fox Business Network program at 6pmET.

Rather’s next plan of action – his lawyer hinted at an appeal yesterday – will be discussed.

The decision to talk to Cavuto first is not a surprise. Rather has appeared on his show several times in the past. Here is one of those appearances:

The Seven Best (Or, Somewhat Memorable) Moments Of The Jay Leno Show

1:13 pm, Tuesday

video

After 95 episodes, the epic failure known as The Jay Leno Show airs its final episode tonight. Of course, Leno himself will be back after the Olympics, comfortably at 11:35pm all over again. Which was pretty much the problem to begin with - the 10pm offering started as a similar product to the Tonight Show, and only became more like the old format as time went on.

Stephen Colbert: ‘Sarah Palin is a F***king Retard’

10:06 am, Tuesday

The usually reliable Keith Olbermann's inability to nail Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin on Limbaugh's use of the term "retard" has been pretty frustrating. Sure, he has posited Palin as a hypocrite, but several times he has repeated Rush's and Palin's dueling assertions that he was "quoting" Rahm Emanuel, or that he was being "satirical," without really challenging it. Luckily, Stephen Colbert actually knows what the word "satire" means, and deployed a pile of it on Palin and Rush last night.
