Edwin Newman - September 15, 2010
NBC newscaster Edwin Newman, has died at the age of 91.
At NBC from 1952 until his retirement in 1984, Newman did political reporting, foreign reporting, anchoring of news specials, "Meet the Press," "Today," "The Nightly News," midday news and a variety of radio spots. He announced the death of President Kennedy on radio and analyzed the Vietnam War.
(TECHNICALLY... he died on August 13th... but his family didn't report it to the world till today. Rather than go back and readjust August's tally, and as no one had him, he's getting thrown onto the slab here in September.)
