Ed Bradley Dies
Thursday, November 09, 2006
Legendary journalist Ed Bradley has died. Bradley earned an amazing 19 Emmy's awards during his career in journalism. The charasmatic "60 Minutes" correspondent died of leukemia this morning at New York's Mount Sinai Hospital. He was 65 years old.
Bradley appeared healthy during an appearance on the CBS News just weeks ago where he promoted his interview with the Duke lacrosse players accused of rape. Bradley won at least one of every major journalism award over his career, which had taken him from the floor of every Republican and Democratic convention from 1976 through 1996. He had only recently learned that he was not to play a part in this week's midterm election-night coverage, which friends said had jarred him. Howard Sterns fans will remember the shock jock cried when Bradley brought him back to his hometown during an interview. Bradley spent an incredible 26 years on "60 Minutes." The show and the world of journalism won't be the same without this dedicated journalist.
