He was, of course, a leftist-media dickhead who pretended to be evenhanded; he was just the oldest leftist media dickhead extant. He was not a pioneer of anything, except media arrogance. And cig smoking. But mostly media arrogance. And cig smoking.

Jeez, one of the girls on the show I linked to at the top said 60 Minutes has been on for "more than 60 years."
