Second Thoughts

Late today I watched MSNBC’s Hardball during which various people who were close to Peter Jennings where interviewed. A particular statement by Ted Koppel in which he said something to the effect that most Americans knew Peter as being somewhat cool and aloof, but I think at least in my case what drew me to watch his evening news show over others was that you could see in his eyes or the tone of voice that he genuinely cared about the issues that confronted us.
