Well, TV journalism is NOW officially, unequivocally useless
This shit ain't fair!
I never watched his show with the regularity I wanted, but the few times I saw him, I admired him. He felt like the only real journalist on TV and whenever I thought about the bad state of journalism in college, I'd remember him and think there was at least one good one out there. Even when he wasn't perfect, he was someone to look up to.
And now he's gone. It's just not fair. At least the cause of death makes sense, unlike Mike Weringo's earlier this year but ... man, this doesn't give me hope for the future at all.

Ironically, with everyone clamoring for "transparency", every online article has to have a comment thread that invites all the flamebaiters to muddle the issue(s) and waste a few more of your brain cells. *-°
