This will be kind of short, but I just want/need to say this.

There was a time in my life where I wanted to be a journalist. In graduate school I got a grad assistance job for the Manship Chair at LSU. His name was Sig Mickelson. It was only much later in my life, when I grew up that I realized how cool that was and how much of a wasted opportunity it was for me.

Sig Mickelson was famous for two things while the head of CBS News. He hired Walter Cronkite and fired Edward R. Murrow. Let me say that again, he hired Walter Cronkite and fired Edward R. Murrow.
