CBS News: Mike Wallace Has Died
by Melisa Goh
April 8, 2012

CBS News is reporting that veteran newsman and "60 Minutes" star interviewer Mike Wallace has died at age 93.

Details of his passing aren't yet clear, but on the CBS website colleague Morley Safer is remembering the journalist's 65 years from Wallace's first appearance on the network to his last.


"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

A fine journalist in the finest sense of that word. He'll be missed.

Agree. I group him with many of the great journalists we've previously lost. There are few of those, if any, left.

I guess, at least for him, the cigarettes back in the day didn't do much damage.

Mike Wallace was good.
60 minutes is a sham though. Edited skewed interviews.

If you want to be, press one. If you want not to be, press 2

Republicans are red, democrats are blue, neither of them, gives a flip about you.
