#9  He will be missed by his fans, of which I was never one.

As an aside, enough of the celebrity journalist. There are people fighting and dying who get no bling.

#8  Shame it wasn't Murtha or Kennedy instead.

#7  I always liked Bradley - he was cool, enjoyed his work, didn't do the hypocritical attack journo that Rather and Wallace mastered...just seemed like a guy you would like to have a beer with... RIP

#6  He was a good tough reporter with a hell of a sense of humor. Now we get Katie Courie (gag).

#3  Damn. He did a great job interviewing musicians and such. About the only 60 Minutes segments worth watching.

#2  I had no idea he was ill. I saw him in the midst of channel surfing about a month ago, and I remember thinking to myself that he sure looked old and frail. Now we know why.
