Ed Bradley of '60 Minutes' dies at 65

By FRAZIER MOORE, AP Television Writer 33 minutes ago

Ed Bradley, the award-winning television journalist who broke racial barriers at CBS News and created a distinctive, powerful body of work during his 26 years on "60 Minutes," died Thursday. He was 65. Bradley died of leukemia at Mount Sinai hospital, CBS News announced.

He landed many memorable interviews, including the Duke lacrosse players accused of rape, Michael Jackson and the only TV interview with Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh.

I liked the interview he did with Willie Nelson a few years ago!

When I was growing up, we watched 60 minutes every Sunday night after dinner. It's a huge childhood memory for me. I can congure up in my head the sound of each of the anchors saying "I'm ________".
