The man who made 60 Minutes a television success died last night at age 93. Mike Wallace was an American broadcast pioneer and a journalism Superstar.

CBS TV plans to acknowledge Mr. Wallace’s death on “60 Minutes” on Sunday night, but programming was delayed by MASTERS golf championship playoffs. Network officials now plan to dedicate a special 60 Minutes edition to celebrate the life of Mike Wallace on April 15.

The one-week postponement will give CBS more time to prepare a very special program for this TV icon.
