A conservative media watchdog has given Dan Rather a better grade for his war coverage than Fox News Channel.

The veteran CBS anchorman has been a frequent target of the Washington, D.C.-based Media Research Center, which keeps an eye out for any signs of liberal bias on television. But the group gave Rather a B-plus for his war work, while Fox News got a B.

“This is just on the war,” Rich Noyes, the organization’s research director, said Wednesday. “It’s not a lifetime achievement award.”
