Wow I looked at the heading and was shocked.... Its sad I remember when I was little watching the news with him on it and I remember a couple months ago when he stated he had lung cancer and was going to semiretire...

I guess I was just shocked to see that he went so fast.

Wow, I didn't even realize that he had gone off the air. I guess I usually only watch NBC evening news but did always think that Jennings was an excellent anchor.

RIP

Yeah, it was a shock to everyone when he left the air, and he did his best to hide his illness. Quite possibly the best TV news anchor the US has ever had.

There is an excellent video about Peter Jennings on the ABC news website: http://abcnews.go.com/

Sorry I don't have a single tear in me eye for that commie, liberal, left wing canadian bastard.

He and his network have been twisting the truth for the lefts interests for several decades now.

With the millions of Lame ass sheep buying ABC's spin in every spot as the gospell thruth every night without ever looking deeper at any other news sources.

All I can say his time of judgement came today, hope he was ready!

Suck my balls, Howie!!!!!!!

Have a little respect for those that have passed on. We never heard you talk about him like that in life, so why do you have to in death. So what if he had different political views than you.

The dignified post would've been, "I never agreed with his views, but it's a shame he had to pass." Or did he do something personally to you????????

Re: ABC News Anchor Peter Jennings Dies at 67
 

Wow, that's pretty fucking harsh Howie.... I would hope you wouldn't want people talking about you like that if you die...

I'm very very sad to see that he passed away so quickly. I didn't hear that he even had lung cancer. At least he was with his family and went peacefully. :(

Peter Jennings did his job. He worked for the media, he wasn't THE media. The way one's life was led is how they should be judged after death. Being callous because of his position in media makes you narrowminded and ill-informed.

I respect those who deserve respect, not those undermining our time honored and blood bought American Values!

Or I bet would you have shed a tear when Hitler died as well?

That's how some of the right view the ABC propaganda machine, get it?

Who's to say for sure they arn't right, we'll just find out in the long run.

So you can Kiss my ASS MatchBX, I'm alowed to have my own opinion, sorry it doesn't agree with yours.

Good god, every single damn thread on this site turns into a debate or argument in one form or another. Whether you agree with his political stance or not, he was one of the greatest anchors of all time. His voice, personality, etc. could have been no better. The man is dead and did more in his lifetime than you ever will, you have to repsect that.

Re: ABC News Anchor Peter Jennings Dies at 67
 

There is no doubt he infulenced many more than I will ever be able to!

"Did more" for good or evil is the real question here.......

People need to peal away the onion, and look a little deeper here?

Re: ABC News Anchor Peter Jennings Dies at 67
 

The dude is dead, for better or worse he was a well repsected man and it should be left at that.

Re: ABC News Anchor Peter Jennings Dies at 67
 

Holy crap we need a new rule on this board to keep the negativity out. I wasnt praising or degrading his job or what he did in life. I found it shocking he passed away so quickly.

If you dont think it was a big deal then STFU and keep your rude comments to yourself, its embarrasing to hear what you say for people that have done so much in their lives.

I dont agree with alot of his political views either but I still think he was a good anchor and did a great job everyday.

You are on a one day ban, and if you keep it up, you will be banned for good. I don't really care if you liked the guy or not, you were an asshole and I will not tolerate it.

Re: ABC News Anchor Peter Jennings Dies at 67
 

Changed to a 7 day ban. This is flat out disrespectfull and should have been left off the site.

He lead a life that should be admired, he stayed a Canadian up until 2002 (or 2003) and many think it's why he was never put in the pressence of death as a reporter as some Americans where during his time in the field. But after Sept 11th he knew where his heart was and became an American Citizen.

He made the news watchable for me. May he rest in peace.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one that took offense to his comments.

I can't believe Darwin hasn't caught up with him yet.
