Saying So Long to Another TV Friend, Ed Bradley

Hi everyone,

This is a special note today, a passing of a legend in televison and on radio.

Ed Bradley, without a doubt will be missed everyone. He had such a presence.
"Easy Ed" as he was known at CBS and he was just that. The way he interview anyone is something that should be taken note by anybody in television journalism.

I believe there was no one better to represent in the "advil" commercial than Ed Bradley during his stint in the late 1980's and early 90's.

I'm saddened that I didn't get to meet him at CBS when I was a intern at WCBS Newsradio 8.80 earlier this year. However, I feel very honored to walk in the same steps in building that Ed , Dan Rather and Walter Cronkitein were in. Ed Bradley's career took off during an assignment in Cambodia in 1971, getting nearly killed in the process of reporting. He was the first Black person to anchor the evening news, among other accomplishments in his career at CBS. However, he was better known for more than 25 years as one of the"mod squad of reports" for "60 Mintues".


My condolence for CBS Family, including where he began at WCBS and "60 Mintues".

Speacial Thank to The AP and CBS for Photos.

Ed , May God bless you, You may be gone but not forgotten, Thanks

Mitch.
