@cnn.com thank you for giving us Good Night and Good Luck last night. It was beautifully shot by your camera crew and of course- the message could not be more important at this moment in America’s history

The only thing wrong with it was that they didn't then immediately say "This panel discussion is important, but MORE important is what's happening in LA right now, so Anderson is heading over to the main studio, and we'll tape this panel discussion and air it tomorrow night."
Agree!
The post interviews gifted some great quotes:
“We are not descended from fearful men”
- Murrow
“Challenge people with more power than you, defend people with less power than you”
- Clooney
Another relevant ERM quote:
“A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves”.
I find it reminds me the wealth gap forced me out of Manhattan, and Broadway shows. That somehow criticizing Joseph McCarthy is bold and daring, while Murrow HS deteriorates from neglect. Then another CNN panel not qualified to lick Murrows shoes, that are able to afford Manhattan rent.
If only @cnn.com practiced Murrow’s journalism yet it gave us breathless Trump fanfare while driving out and distorting the record of one of the US most successful presidents
I recorded it for viewing when my mind is not in hyperdrive. Knowing the high praise you give it encourages me to take some quiet time to enjoy it. Thank you for the review 💖✨
As a member of the media behind the cameras for 42 years I know what it takes to achieve this level of excellence and it was a masterpiece. Congratulations. And the message/content couldn’t be clearer.
Edward R Murrow is an example of how much courage is needed to take on the far Right. He exposed senator McCarthy’s hearings as the unjust witch hunts they really were. McCarthy imagined Communists everywhere and accused many innocent people. He destroyed the sanity of Murrow’s fellow journalist.
