Jennings was a HEAVY smoker for many years before he finally quit. I guess he took too long to quit. RIP. ---

Peter was my favorite news anchor… he was so suave. I’m going to miss him. They played his little good bye on CNN tonight and it was very sad… I wish every person in broadcast would be as classy and good as he was. ---
