Very sad. I remember watching him for many years on 60 minutes. Always a very kind man.

RIP Morley... He was a last link to the original core of "60 Minutes." That included Harry Reasoner, Mike Wallace, Dan Rather and Ed Bradley and producer Don Hewitt.

Safer & Reasoner were two of the best storytellers in the industry. It's a lost art now, in this day and age of 30-second sound bytes. Nobody takes the time to paint a picture with words - it's all "verbal selfies".

Requiescat in pace.
