Long-time CBS News -- most famously for curating 60 Minutes -- producer perished, 86.

I read a book about 60 minutes someone gave me and yes, he was a real dickhead...but so was just about everybody else on that show, especially Mike Wallace. Wallace told Ed Bradley when Bradley first joined that if the show started to decline it would be his fault. Basically they were all super-competitive dickheads who didn't much care for each other. But it worked on TV.

And Don Hewitt tried to FUH just about every female he saw. Master of television production and design though.

I thought this was a Mafia Wars thread at first.
I need to stop playing that game.

A twofer, actually. Either Olbermann & O'Reilly dying in the middle of a sixty-nine, or Olbermann killing Rachel Maddow, then offing himself. (If he cannot have her, no one will.)

If only BO would kill Maddow -- forcing Olberman back to sports commentary -- this scenario wouldn't bother me much.

Took me a beat to figure you mean Bill O, not Barack Obama. I was thinking before that -- what's Barry got against lesbos? I mean, just look at this picture:
