Ah, TVNewser contributors never sleep. As I checked out ABC’s Dirty Sexy Money tonight, who should appear on the show in a cameo role? Dan Rather. Playing Dan Rather. He attends a party at the Manhattan townhome of the fictional Darling family, hoping to get the scoop on the political ambitions of Billy Baldwin’s Patrick Darling character.

Rather: “So word’s out you’re headed for the Senate, Pat.”

After Baldwin dodges the question, Rather turns to Darling’s wife: “So he is running, isn’t he?”

Will Rather get the story? Will he return in future episodes? Guess I’ll have to tune in next week…
