The well known Journalist Robert Novak has died.

The well known Journalist Robert Novak has died.

Robert Novak a must read journalist for Washington Insiders has died. He broke the news.  He was a journalist above the rest. More than a news analyst, he was most recently known for breaking the Valerie Plame story that had such a traumatic effect on the Bush Administration. I have been reading the stories from Robert Novak  since the 1970′s. .

He was highly respected among journalists for over 50 years. Politicians feared him. Thus the nickname Prince of Darkness.

From the Chicago Sun Times:

“Chicago Sun-Times columnist Robert Novak, one of the nation’s most influential journalists, who relished his “Prince of Darkness” public persona, died at home here early Tuesday morning after a battle with brain cancer. “He was someone who loved being a journalist, love journalism and loved his country and loved his family, Novak’s wife, Geraldine, told the Sun Times.”

Farah Fawcett dies

Farah Fawcett dies

6.25.09 The Actress icon Farrah Fawcett died at age 62 today. The star of the television series “Charlies Angels” has passed on. Her companion Ryan O”Neal was at her side. This may be on the level of the Princess Di Funeral. Farrah Fawcett was  an actress on top of her game. Many Fans tried to help her with cancer from all over the world.

There are some reports that there will be a memorial funeral service for fans. We will keep you posted.

Farrah died at 9:28 am west coat time. “Farah’s Story” was recently was popular on Television. Farah Fawcett was a TV and movie icon for 40 years.

From the Los Angeles Times

“it is impossible to overstate the cultural influence of Farrah Fawcett.

With her practice-makes-perfect blue-eyed smile and doomed marriage to “The Six Million Dollar Man” Lee Majors, she was Princess Di before there was a Princess Di, a photogenic icon who just seemed nice. With her determination to show that she could play against image and defy expectations (“The Burning Bed,” “Extremities”), she was a role model for every actor who has been typecast, every star whose talent has been questioned. Yes, by giving millions of American females an alternative to the very severe Dorothy Hamill bob, she single-handedly established the blow-dryer and curling-iron industries and created the whole career-path-through hairstyle phenomenon.”

Farrah Fawcett a cultural icon is gone.
