JERRY NACHMAN
Requiescat in Pacem

Jerry Nachman, broadcast and print journalist: 1946-2004.

Had I ever met Nachman I doubt we would have agreed about much of anything. Still, far more than most of his peers he was a genuine journalist -- and better, of the “old-school” variety -- having worked his way up through the ranks at the Pittsburgh Press, NBC, CBS, WCBS-TV (New York), the New York Post, and MSNBC, according to the obituary published in today’s New York Times.

Fifty-seven years old. That’s really not so old, you know.
