David Brinkley: The Gold Standard of News

8 months ago

On Episode 14 of "Strange Bedfellows" we paid tribute to broadcast news legend David Brinkley on the 20th anniversary of his death.

To my mind, Brinkley was always the gold standard of journalism -- no one has matched or surpassed him since. (And probably, no one ever will.)

In this segment I'll show you some of Brinkley's masterful historic coverage of events like: Fidel Castro's Cuban Revolution of January 1959, the 1960 Democratic National Convention, the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, the assassination of #JFK, and more.

We will also discuss David Brinkley's remarkable life and 60 year career in journalism.

It's an inspiring story, not just for journalists (or those who aspire to this once-noble profession), but for everyone who appreciates fair, honest, responsible journalism -- the way it used to be -- the way only David Brinkley could do it.

If you enjoy this highlight, watch Episode 14 in the "Strange Bedfellows" (Full Episodes) playlist on my YouTube channel.

Episode 14, "The Death of Broadcast News" originally aired September 23, 2023 on the Maverick News Network.
