NEW YORK - CBS News hasn't invited Dan Rather back to participate in its 50th-anniversary coverage of the Kennedy assassination, but images of the longtime anchor who parted bitterly with the network will be a part of its upcoming documentary on how the story unfolded that day.
Rather helped organize CBS' plans for President John F. Kennedy's visit to Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963, and as a young reporter was a key component of assassination coverage. Now 82, with his own show on AXS-TV, he's one of the few reporters on the story that day still active in journalism.
Rather, who later became CBS News' top anchor for 24 years, will appear on NBC's "Today" show on Nov. 22 this year.
"I held off doing anything for anybody else for a while, thinking I may be asked to do something (for CBS)," Rather said. "I can't say I had any reason for that hope."
CBS Washington bureau chief Bob Schieffer, who as a newspaper reporter in 1963 gave the mother of Lee Harvey Oswald a ride to Dallas after the assassination, will anchor a Nov. 16 special on that day's coverage. CBS' announcement of the special recently said viewers will relive the day with anchor Walter Cronkite and reporters Charles Collingwood, Harry Reasoner, Charles Kuralt and Mike Wallace. All of those men are now dead; Rather went unmentioned.
Rather expressed concern about an effort to "airbrush this guy out because we don't like him," but the show's senior executive producer said this would not be the case. Film of Rather on that day will be part of the Schieffer special, and so will recollections that Rather recorded for the network through the years, said Susan Zirinsky.
"Dan Rather was a big part of the CBS coverage when the assassination occurred ... he's absolutely in the broadcast," Zirinsky said.
Rather worked at CBS News for 44 years. His downfall came as a result of a 2004 story about President George W. Bush's military service. Under criticism, the network concluded the story couldn't be substantiated, but Rather has stood behind it. His tenure as anchor ended six months later and he left CBS in 2006, eventually filing a $70 million lawsuit against his old employers that was thrown out in 2010 by New York's highest court.
As a young New Orleans bureau chief for CBS in November 1963, Rather had a mundane assignment in Dallas. He had arranged locations along the presidential motorcade route for film of the visit to be picked up and transmitted to CBS' New York headquarters. He had no on-air assignment.
He sprang into action when it became clear something had gone terribly wrong. Rather described in his 1977 book, "The Camera Never Blinks," that CBS radio went with his report that Kennedy was dead - based not on official confirmation but his phone conversations with men who identified themselves as a doctor and priest at the hospital where Kennedy was taken, and a colleague's conversation with the hospital's chief of staff.
It was an extraordinary risk: if Rather was wrong, he conceded his career in journalism likely would have ended there.
Days later, Rather was among the first people to see film of the assassination taken by Abraham Zapruder and he later described it live on CBS, reading from a spiral notebook what it captured of the president and first lady at the moment of impact. CBS failed, however, to acquire rights to the film.
"I'm proud of what CBS News did at the time," Rather said. "When the country needed it, CBS News was the best in the business."
Rather gave an extensive interview about what happened that day to his old competitor, NBC's Tom Brokaw, for use on Brokaw's NBC special to air Nov. 22.

About Us
FlamingWhopper.com was bought to flame on 16th June 2004. Being a huge Darkness fan (also known as a Darkling) and after collecting a bunch of images and other media articles from around the net as well as in publications, I decided to embark on a project to share my findings with other Darklings.
When I began to search the net for 'Darkness' sites...I found it quite disheartening that when I put 'The Darkness' into Google I didn't come up with much (evil Google). And when I did find some Darkness Sites, I decided 'why not create one where all the Darklings can get together and make up a site dedicated to The Darkness...muahaha'.
I was browsing through most of the sites and I came up with an idea to start an information site, as there wasn't much information all in the same place at the time, which would have been kinda handy. First off, I asked the Darklings on the Official Darkness Forum, I asked them if it was a good idea to build a site. At first I didn't get many replies, but over time more people became interested, and soon I had some Darklings that wanted to spread the word of The Darkness.
So I registered a domain name...which I wasn't sure what to call yet. I took a line out of an article about Justin's flame tattoo, which a Journalist had referred to as 'The Flaming Whopper' (not that this site is all about Justin's crotch...well just a little bit in some areas I guess).
After a hectic couple of weeks scourging the net and finding some webmasters/mistress' to talk to and get ideas from (incld. the Darklings at the Official Forum) I finally had time to come up with a design (I'm a multimedia student...still learning multimedia), put all the content together and create this site.
I hope that people will find this site helpful and that it will become one of the main destinations on the web for The Darkness information.
2008 Update: Due to The Darkness breaking up and going their separate ways, we thought it'd be a shame to lose all the work and effort we put into making the site. So, we've continued boldly on with rock bands, promoting unsigned bands...and of course Stone Gods and Team Hotleg (and anything else Justin fancies doing lol)

Adams County: woman's skeleton was bound by rope
The last time any of her friends or family saw Leonila Tara Cortez-Rodriguez was when she was in the passenger seat of a car.
She was leaving Gigi's bar at 1452 Uinta St. in Denver in the early morning hours of Aug. 21, 1996 with a man that close friend of hers didn't recognize.
The friend, Katrina Rickstrew, who had spent much of the night with Leonila, called out to Leonila, who was then 30.
"Where are you going?"
Leonila leaned her head out of the window of a large white or yellow sedan and yelled that she was just headed home. She lived in Aurora at the time.
The close friend didn't recognize the man who was driving the car, which could have been an Oldsmobile.
Leonila never made it home.
The next day, Leonila's common-law husband, John James Stone, called Aurora police and filed a missing person's report. Rickstrew also made a statement.
She had very little to say about the man who the Hispanic woman had left with. He was a black man in his 30s with a round face and short hair. That was it.
Two months went by with no sign of Leonila, a young mother. Family members knew something had happened to her. She wouldn't just leave her young children behind.
On Oct. 28, 1996, a Monday afternoon, a man was riding a bicycle along East 54th Avenue a Monday afternoon, when he saw something unusual on the ground beside the road.
It was a skeleton. He called 911.
