I don't know how many pieces of his I've seen where his crew would haul a camera up to the front door of some business and begin filming while Wallace browbeat his way in.

Sincerely, R.I.P. Mike Wallace, but I can't get that image out of my mind: just Wallace, the cameraman, the cameraman's shadow on the sidewalk, the Gates of Heaven, St. Peter... Man, what I wouldn't give to see that.

Condolensces to the family. Chris Wallace strikes me as a decent enough guy, his politics may be different than mine, certainly his dad’s were.

But even with that, I’d feel uncomfortable coming onto a thread and making some of the comments I read here.
RIP Mike Wallace.

I know the Judeo-Christian “American values” and basic respect for the family should override the cat calls and “hope he burns in Hell” DU and Firedoglake gave Breitbart...but Breitbart was on the side of truth and Wallace was an old Media New World Order Commie who profited off the system he fought his entire life to destroy, along with Jennings, Rather, Kronkite to the present lying Lib newsrooms across the US, especially in NYC.

Mike Wallace, dead at 93, to be buried in Red Square, where his idols are buried.

I agree Kaslin. FR used to be above such animosity on threads about a death. Not any more apparently..

“Such hatred. “

I am not going to wish anyone well that wished me harm and tried to do me harm. He was a Communist that did my nation harm.

Well, we used to be under the illusion that we had a free press and that they told the truth... since that cover is blown forever and the evil of their treachery is known by all... sympathy for dead commies and traitors on FR is in short supply. I said RIP commie... that is as nice as it gets from me for a presstitute.

Why be hypocrites? Do you expect people to say wonderful things about him just because he died? People are entitled to their opinions. I remember when Molly Ivins died and from the thread on FR, you'd have hardly known she was a hateful old crow. Everyone was praising her. It was sickening.

As for Wallace, he was the first newscaster I ever saw on a black and white TV, doing morning or noon news updates for CBS. He was exceptional, one of the best I ever saw. Frank Reynolds of ABC was my favorite, never ideological. Wallace was every bit as good, but he followed Uncle Walter and Cousin Dan towards the far left and became a journalistic toady and fellow traveler. That is as kind as I can be. RIP.

Not only would he betray our nation’s Soldiers, he also said that if the “SHTF” and he was in trouble, he would hide behind them.

Sounds a lot like that Ayers loser.

He was one of those pioneers we can thank for the destructive, lurid, gotcha "journalism" of today.

Let's be clear. No one would have ever heard of Mike Wallace if he had not produced a product that found customers.

He and his brand of "journalism" put eyeballs on screens. Bottom line stuff.

I never thought it appropriate to spit on somebody's grave. No matter who's grave.

But what do I know, I'm a n00b around here.

When I think the level of discourse here has hit bottom, here they come to dig it a little deeper.

That is one big circle of hell when it comes to JournOlists. Mike was close to worse as Morrow, another commie who hated the US military.

I was taught never to speak ill of the dead...so therefore I’m speechless.
