Ed was a first rate journalist, and throughout his career he not only set a high standard for his fellow journalists, he also helped to break down barriers in a field that too often has not reflected the true diversity of our nation. Ed was always interested in the role of African Americans in politics, and when we last spoke he shared his interest in the work of the Congressional Black Caucus. I was privileged to know him, and my thoughts and prayers are with his family. ### Next Article | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
