[Red Badger]

No comment......................

[MIchaelTArchangel]

When will we read the obituary of public television?

[Honorary Serb]

May his Memory be Eternal!

[Steely Tom]

Indeed. May what he did never be forgotten.

[ClearCase_guy]

He was dead to me a long time ago.

[alstewartfan]

Radical leftist. But RIP Bill. ✝️

[Texas Eagle]

This is one of those days that I will always remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news that.......ehhhhhh.....what were we talking about again?

[j.havenfarm]

He had a fine speaking voice.
That’s about as far as I can go

[Macoozie]

Not missed.
Nope, not at all.

[abb]

That he was the mouthpiece for the weasel LBJ is all you need to know.

[reasonisfaith]

Someday we might know the CIA backgrounds of some of these “journalists.”

[Nextrush]

Ordained Baptist clergy who soiled himself in the Johnson Administration (Lyndon not Mike).

Identified with the LBJ Mafia later a repentant PBS proclaimer of self-righteous liberalism but still later an alcoholic working on recovery.

He had a life story.

R! I! P!!!

[Skooz]

I liked Moyers back in the 1970s. He had a folksy delivery and a laid back vibe, no doubt a heritage of his upbringing in Marshall, Texas.

Over time he mutated into one of the most vile, hate-filled and ignorant commentators in the media. Kind of like a slightly subdued Keith Olbermann.

Rest in peace, Bill.

[Yossarian]

and then went on to a long and celebrated career as a broadcast journalist infamous career as an arrogant liberal blowhard.

Fixed it.

[pburiak]

Didn’t agree with him but definitely a memorable fixture of pre-Internet 80’s political media along with the McLaughlin Group, McNeil-Lehrer Report, Firing Line etc.

Unfortunately if he’s with his former boss right now, the heat’s a little more intense than he grew up with in Texas.

[lee martell]

I recall Moyers somewhat. I don’t know if he was a hard L Liberal like Cronkite or not. His tenure was before I began really paying attention to each individual talking head.
Dan Rathers, I do know about, as he tended to make news more often.

[Oklahoma]

He was born in Oklahoma where his family was from. He was just as evil as his boss, Lyndon Johnson.

[xp38]

I had already forgotten about him until this news of his passing. I imagine it won’t take too long before I’ve forgotten about him all over again.
