Lindsey 0 #2 July 4, 2008 There's plenty stuff better than that that happened today. For instance, the kids cleaned up the back yard. He was a person who I didn't like too, but his death today hasn't helped our world even one little bit. Any damage he would cause has already been done. Condolences to those who loved him.

ryoder 1,590 #3 July 4, 2008 Shortly after David Brinkley retired from his Sunday morning "The Week With David Brinkley" show, I saw an interview of him in which he was talking about his early years. He told how an "ignorant, uneducated, unqualified" man had been responsible for putting on a show right after his news show to contradict the news he had just given. The interviewer smiled knowlingly and asked, "I know who you are talking about, should we tell the audience?" Brinkley: "Go ahead." http://www.medialifemagazine.com/news2003/jun03/jun09/5_fri/news6friday.html QuoteBrinkley did not change with the times, nor would his audience have wanted him to. He risked the wrath of his hometown of Wilmington, N.C., through his unsympathetic coverage of southern segregationist policies, so rankling a young TV station manager named Jesse Helms that Helms hired a conservative to present dueling commentaries."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.
