Peter Jennings: ''Prickly and pretentious.''

Accurate description of Peter Jennings but Roone Arledge could also have left the "ly" off "Prickly."

I caught his funeral on C-SPAN -- it was tons of fun watching some of the "stars" obviously have to come up with some non-petulant things to say. It appeared to me that he was a strong guy who ran things his way and wasn't particularly enamored with his stars' opinions of themselves.

My kinda guy.

'' David Brinkley: ``Class and clout -- a bona fide star.''

Good call on Brinkley. He was a class act. Recall how the network forced him to apolgize for his 'Clinton is a boor remark ?' That was an absolute travesty. Wonder what Jennings and Koppel had to do with that . . . ?

I really wish they would replace Peter, the canadian citizen, Jennings.
