David Gergen RIP

[PeterRS]

There was a time not all that long ago when I wached CNN virtually every mornng. It was a routine for many, many years until I decided to ban all tv news programmes. The number of times I now go even to the BBC news site is perhaps just a couple of times each month.

But I do read on line news. This morning i was saddened to learn of the death of David Gergen, the political analyst who was a frequent fixture on CNN. A one-time advisor to four Presidents, I liked his cool analytical skills and his unflappability! Compared to so many biased so-called experts, I believed what he said and enjoyed listening to him. RIP David Gergen.

Agreed.  He was always interesting to listen to.  RIP.
