Dear Thomas:

What a shame, the world's greatest journalist EVER, thats EVER has died! Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) News Correspondent-Emeritus Mike Wallace died at XCIII on Saturday night. Over LXV (65) plus years in broadcasting & journalism, I mean what a truly remarkable talent. Tough but fair, mean as hell, but also very respectful of his subjects & their station in life. From the lowest guy on the totem pole all the way II Kings, Queens, & Presidents, Mike interviewed them all. He not only chatted with him subject, he worked extremely hard on his research & his framing of each & every question he asked so that they would generate an honest & forthright discussion. Mike's hard hitting & unique style will be missed.

Students Of Journalism Take Note & Reflect A Moment As A True Broadcast Pioneer & Legend Is Gone,

Rory
