TV reporter Bob Simon Rip 02/11/15

CBS is reporting that longtime CBS news reporter Bob Simon has passed away after being involved in a car accident in New York City. He was a great reporter for CBS's 60 minutes. RIP.

Sad news. And a crappy way to go for someone like him who's been through so much in his career.

That's horrible. I just saw his piece with Mandy Patinkin recently. He was a good reporter.

He was a good, if rather conservative, correspondent on 60 Minutes. Pity.

Off-topic, but I like the new guy, Bill Whitaker.

That's very sad. Watched his excellent segment on the Selma movie last Sunday.

Limo accidents has to be one of the top causes of death for celebrities since they don't ever buckle up on their trips.
