A CBS Legend!
A true pioneer in TV news, Don Hewitt died today at the age of 86. He‘s the guy that created the show “60 Minutes“ in the 60’s. I read that he started with CBS in 1948, right when they where starting out. I also read that he produced 60 Minutes until 2004, that’s a long time. He also won 73 Emmys, 13 DuPont/Columbia University Awards and nine Peabody Awards with 60 Minutes. I sure would think that his idea for 60 Minutes was a great one. He’s also the guy that said “tell me a story”, an idea he got from kids. He will live on through his show, as well as other things he’s done. He was a true visionary, he’ll be missed by many people.
