91. My father did very little TV and radio

A few times on Meet The Press, some radio broadcasts for upstate New York, but mostly print journalism from Washington. He was a rarity when he was elected president of the Gridiron Club, since that is an honor usually reserved for high profile journalists (Helen preceded my father as President, although not by much), and my dad was a one man Washington bureau from a one horse town.

But toward the end of his life/career, he lamented the transformation of his profession into one of sensationalist performing, and he bemoaned that true journalism was being abandoned in favor of big headlines and lax fact-checking (Clinton impeachment as a time frame).
