Rest In Peace: William Safire



Williams Safire died today from his bout with pancreatic cancer at the age of 79.

I considered Safire to have been one of the precious good things to come from the New York Times. Sadly because that newspaper is so intellectually dishonest and bias, I missed much of Safire's writings, because I had to catch his stuff here and there from other sources.

May he rest peace.

  1. He'll be missed. One of the last, true voices of conservatism.

    Yes he will be. I regret letting my dislike for the Times stop me from reading more of his stuff.

  3. Same with me. I refuse to pay for The Times so I had to wait for his collection books.
