Ed Bradley died today of leukemia.
I grew up watching Ed Bradley. He made me want to know and understand things...to not stop at the surface, but to go deeper and form an opinion.
In an age of media spectacles and desperate stunts, Ed Bradley remained a journalist. Even when he pissed me off I had to admire that.
I will remember his presence…the measured tone and confident intellectualism...and the cool as hell jazz of him.

I was shocked to see this, and only 65!
Ed Bradley was always classy. I admired his style, and his sense of self. Very sad to hear of his passing.
He, his talent, and his trademark earring will be sadly missed:(
I was really sad to hear about his death. He had been such a constant figure in television news.
He will be missed....
"the jazz of him" says it all
