RIP Morley Safer

Submitted by ub on

Another 60 Minutes Man has died. 84-year-old Morley Safer, who was a TV news icon and a pillar of broadcast journalism as a member of CBS' 60 Minutes team for almost five decades.

I had the pleasure of meeting him at The Museum of Broadcasting years ago while serving as NY Bureau Chief at The Associated Press. He was funny, charming and had an eye for classic beauty. May he rest is peace.
