Back in the day when I watched CBS News, I thought Threlkeld was far above most of his peers.
RIP, sir.

He was good. He was from the Dragnet school of reporting: “Just the facts, ma’am...”

AP used this line....
"....when his car collided with a propane tanker."
They conveniently let out a little fact...."...when his 2008 Mini-Cooper collided with a propane tanker"
Newsday has a picture of the car, but I am unsure about posting rules for Newsday photos

It's been so long since I watched MSM that I'd forgotten about Threlkeld. I do recall I used to like his reporting. Very sad.
I drove a Mini once over in England. Really liked it -- fun. Will take my chances in my F250 over here, though.

” correspondent who worked for both CBS and ABC News “
May be my creaky ol’ memory playing tricks, but I vaguely remember him as a local reporter for one of the Chicago TV stations back in the early 60s....
Either way, he was one of the ‘old school’ good reporters...
RIP

Hank Hill was the driver and he was a GWB fan. Therefore it is Bush’s fault!

A Franken and Obama sticker on a Mini Cooper - how cliche. Too bad he had to die, but thousands die each day and many are far more tragic and grievous losses to humanity. Well, some lucky mediabot will move up a notch tomorrow.

Condolences to his family, prayers for his soul.
