Anyone see Katy Tur's sign-off right before the start of Ali Velshi's show today?Last edited Fri Mar 20, 2020, 04:53 PM - Edit history (1)
Holding back tears, she spoke of a longtime colleague and friend who just died from COVID-19 which "stole him away from us". Then she implored viewers to wash their hands and keep their distance.

2. She Was Barely Able To Maintain
Then she ended with a safety message. Classy & heartfelt.

3. And that was a major
move on her part. Tragic as it is,you can count on her being a very aggressive interviewer from now on.

7. Andrea Mitchell too. You know that slam against NBC was enraging.
I wonder if he’s the man Craig Melvin and Al Roker went into quarantine after being exposed to. I suspect so. How sad and how terrifying to them.

13. When newspeople cry, I have more respect for them.
Cronkite with JFK and Dan Rather at Columbine come to mind.
Stephanie Ruhle during each school shooting as well. |

14. I hope this ratchets up the truth telling about Trump's criminal negligence
To the nation. Why someone hasn’t launched a coup on his administration is something I simply don’t understand.
