Rather Ousted From Baghdad By Iraqi Authorities
CBS anchor Dan Rather and eight staffers were ordered out of Baghdad and left for Amman Jordan. The CBS crew, including Allen Pizzey, had covered developments in Iraq after arriving the previous week. NBC anchor Tom Brokaw returned to New York while Ted Koppel’s ABC team had already left. Iraqi officials cited the reporters having outstayed their welcome.
