yeah, i didn't realize it either, watching the old footage now...![]()
Same here. At 5:30 sharp, I flipped over to ABC for the news for many, many years.
me too.. man it's making me sadder.
I've laways liked Peter, he was my fav. anchor.
man.. who've we got now? super old guy on CBS, scewed face dude on NBC.... and who knows who in ABC...
man. this is quite a loss.
We'll be seeing Katie Couric soon.
Wow. That's sad. I had no idea that he was that ill.![]()
I didn't like him on the news, but this is very sad.
I thought he was the best of the big 3.
Damn.
Man I thought this was a joke when I first saw the thread le. Then I remembered about his cancer. That is sad![]()
Jeez, I had no idea he was that ill either...this is horrible...![]()
I'm going to miss him.
Rest in peace, Mr. Jennings.
my favorite news anchor ever. he will be greatly missed.
ty news...shows you how bad the ole cigarettes are.
rip peter
It's really, REALLY suprising though. You just don't think of people like him as human in the sense that you never really think of them dying. They're just there giving you the news every single day and it takes a while for something like this to set in.
Wow thats amazing, didn't know he was that bad.
A true commie liberal, but a great voice and a great tv presence.
Truely a pioneer.
When is Barbara Walters going to die now?
They said he had quit smoking in 1986 but had relapsed during 9-11........... sucks.
she had her blood replaced with embalming fluid years ago.When is Barbara Walters going to die now?
Damn...
as a young journalism student back in the day...he was one I looked up to.
God Bless You sir.
I didn't know his cancer was that bad. They made it seem that he could recover from it. This is so sad. I liked watching him do the news![]()

Wow! That was fast! I am going to buy some more LiveStrong bracelets.
It's sad, but he announced his cancer was pretty bad when he retired.
I guess they will all be pretty much linked to each other. Probably no group of broadcasters will again, based on the increase of cable news and the decrease in prominance of network news.
