"Good night and good luck"
I just saw it.
Wow.
If you haven't then do it.

Edward R. Murrow knew what was coming and we are now squarely in the middle of it.
Where are the modern day Murrow's?

He was a true patriot and his courage is inspirational.
Things haven't changed very much.
The Left keeps trying to get the truth out and the Right works the corporate channels to supress it.

9. Bill Moyers I THINK worked with Edward R. Murrow

I'm not certain of that but Moyers is a lot like murrow in my opinion.

Moyers did know what was coming and tried to stop it.

3. Agree...
I thought it was awesome, and I also wish we had a few Murrow's around. Heck, how about a Cronkite?
