Peter Jennings

Yesterday I had an urge to write to Peter Jennings and express my hopes for his recovery. Today I awoke to hear the sad news that Jennings had passed away. Each night over the past few months I would turn on ABC News and hope to see Peter’s face again, tonight the news will be hard to watch and especially sad for everyone at ABC.

Over the years I would eat dinner and make it a point to watch Peter Jennings not only for the latest news but for the special segments woven in to the coverage. In a few days for the first time I will do something I have not done in many many years, that is to channel hop during the evening news.
