Daniel Schorr Dies
Legendary journalist Daniel Schorr-he was one of "Murrow's boys," he was on Nixon's "enemies list," and he spent the last 25 years providing commentary for NPR-has died at the age of 93.
RIP, good sir.
Oh fuck all.
Gotta say, using the same adjective ("legendary") for Schorr and the chupacabra in back-to-back posts is a tad jarring.
A good long interesting life…
I will miss him on NPR — he was sharp and frequently hilarious.
I will deeply miss his pithy, denture-imposed sibilance.
when something bad happens you guys should call it AWLFUL NEWS
I'll miss him every Saturday morning…what a life.
Certainly, Dan Schorr was from the old school, but unlike a lot of Great Men Of Their Day, he never let the changing world make him into a relic. A hell of a reporter, right up to the end. I'll miss hearing him.
That voice! So sad. RIP.
I hate this.
An essential piece of the Watergate puzzle. Incredible reporter; deft and devastating communicator.
