David Brinkley Dead

From Election Night 1996 -

Brinkley: "I wish to say that we all look forward with great pleasure to four years of wonderful, inspiring speeches full of wit, poetry, music, love and affection. More goddamn nonsense."

Peter Jennings: "You can't say that on the air, Mr. Brinkley."

Brinkley: "Well, I'm not on the air."

Jennings: "David, we are on the air."

Brinkley: "Too bad. I told you I was leaving."
