Peter Jennings was a fixture in my home growing up. My parents both loved the guy, and always watched him on the news - ever since I could remember.
Moving on into adulthood, I moved away from watching him on the news as it seemed his views - very noticable to a young republican - weren’t always unbiased. Still, this is a man with a career that spanned through 5 decades and undoubtedly he touched many lives through his coverage and broadcasts. He passed away today, Sunday, at the age of 67. May he rest in peace.

I didn't realize how long he had been around in the media. Or that he was in his 60's-the last time I saw him I thought he looked maybe 50ish.
God Speed.
