Aug. 20th, 2009 12:45 pmi didn't know that Bob Novak just died. that makes me very sad. he was one of the only journalists that i had absolute faith in because he did his job with honor.
Jeffrey Bell calls Novak a "truth-seeker".
it's like arguments i used to have with my cops. you can investigate one of two ways; either you follow the evidence to wherever it leads you - regardless of what you believe to be the outcome - or you form the evidence you find into supporting the conclusion you already have in your mind.
neither is particularly difficult to do.
Novak was of the former variety, and journalism was the better for it...which means, so were we.
