Last of the Murrow Boys

By Sniffles

The knowledge that Daniel Schorr graced this planet for 93 long years is satisfying, but doesn't erase our sadness at his death.

His dedication to freedom of the press and his refusal to be cowed by those in power made him a true American patriot. Our country is a better place because Daniel Schorr was born, lived and worked here.

As for us, our Saturday mornings will be the poorer for his loss, and we will miss him.
