Oh my God - I am completely shocked!!! I had no idea he was sick.

Who ever thought Mike Wallace would outlive Ed Bradley? (knock wood)

I just read this on Yahoo and I am saddened and stunned

I never knew he was ill! He was such a cool guy! RIP Ed

I think he might have been a Kappa?

That's what Wikipedia also states -- Kappa Alpha Psi.

Very sad to hear of his passing.

Actually, I'm pretty sure he was an Omega, but they can confirm (or not) that. I met him a few years ago when he came to our campus as part of a lecture series. I was a media relations officer then and spent a fair amount of time with him (pre-speech) in his dressing room.

He was chilled, very reflective, given the life-on-the-run of a "60 Minutes" correspondent. He just came across as a man very much at ease with himself. I enjoyed the opportunity exchange some dialogue with him.

God speed, E. Bradley

I just heard that. That's sad, and I did not know he was ill, either. I always enjoyed his segments on 60 Minutes.

Loved his style. He could get the same answers that Wallace could, without being overtly aggressive.

An outstanding journalist is gone.
