John Chancellor: Peril and Promise.

I ran across this interview on YouTube today and ended up watching the entire 10 or so minutes in its entirety. I’m guessing this interview as from around 1990, as George H.W. Bush was president at the time.

John Chancellor, former anchorman for NBC Nightly News, talks about what was plaguing the U.S. at the time. I couldn’t help but think how prophetic some of his insights were, especially when it comes to campaign financing, PACs and SuperPACs, and the state of American education.

I miss hearing the optimism he has in his voice in today’s “journalists” on the cable news channels.

Snow.

I went for my morning walk this morning. There was a couple of inches of snow on the ground and my legs got quite a workout.

Exercise is good.
