I am saddened by the death of
Mike Wallace. He was a tiger in journalism -- know for stealing stories from his co-workers and being unafraid to ask the tough questions. While I don't ascribe to his journalist style, it in no way takes away from his greatness. Mr. Wallace also battled depression; at one point even considering suicide. In his later years, he was quite open about his mental illness. Probably best known to my generation for his 38 years on the tv news magazine
60 Minutes, Mr. Wallace was 93 years old.
