Subject: Bernard Shaw Signs Off…
Written By: LyricBoy on 09/09/22 at 2:37 pm
Legendary TV newsman Bernard Shaw has passed away from pneumonia at the age of 82. :\'(
https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/08/media/bernard-shaw-obituary/
Shaw was CNN's first chief anchor and was with the network when it launched on June 1, 1980. He retired from CNN after more than 20 years on February 28, 2001.
During his storied career, Shaw reported on some of the biggest stories of that time -- including the student revolt in Tiananmen Square in May 1989, the First Gulf war live from Baghdad in 1991, and the 2000 presidential election.
Bernard is the newsman who once while hosting a debate, famously asked presidential candidate Michel Dukakis if he would oppose the death penalty if some dude had raped and killed Dukakis’ wife. Definitely a gangster move by Shaw, and he caught ol’ Mike flat footed. ;D

He was the first ever journalist I saw on CNN when I first got cable. He was one of the best!
