It's on the CBS News website......details coming soon.
Never thought I'd see a 60 minutes correspondent with an earring--thanks for shaking it up a little!

Sail on, Ed :(

A big loss for many reasons.

For those who don't recall, Ed gave the eulogy at Jimmy's mother's funeral. So yes, he held a very special place in the Buffett world.

I should think Jimmy will want to attend any services. Hopefully next week's schedule allows for that without too much difficulty.

Sail on, Ed.

Thank you.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

For anyone who didn't know or may have forgotten-
He was wounded in 1970 while covering the Vietnam war.

America is poorer today because of the loss of Mr. Ed Bradley. :cry:
