The brilliant and perceptive journalist Murrow was not only unaware of the hundreds of Soviet spies running loose in the U.S. government, he was also unaware that his own dear friend Duggan was a Soviet spy -- his friend on whose behalf corpses littered the Swiss landscape.

Is this sarcasm or is Ann saying Murrow was really a dim bulb?

Few writers are skilled enough to carry off such sarcasm. Alexander Pope was one; Ann Coulter is another.

Why do you think they're referred to as "talking heads?"

She is saying Murrow was either; dumb, delusional or corrupt. Or maybe a mixture of all three.
