I remember Dick Gregory from my college days, more than 30 years ago. I remember marking him down in my mind as someone who is honest and sincere, though with a view of the world that for the most part differs from mine.

My impression is that he calls ‘em as he sees ‘em. I can’t remember the incident that first brought him to my attention, but I do know this: he doesn’t march in lockstep with the “black power” movement.

Uh...it's DAVID Gregory.

My prior impression of Dick Gregory was as a liberal weasel. I think he’s cleaned up his act since he took over Meet the Press—to try to maintain that show’s evenhanded legacy. I think he will eventually revert to his old demeanor, but it may take a while.

I agree. I also think, thus far, he’s doing a better job than Russert.

Maybe he finally took his meds for the BDS he was suffering from
