Some very interesting and (in todays world) controversial interviews that Mike Wallace did in the 1950s – these have been digitally restored and were though lost for decades.

Of particular interest to me: Eldan Edwards, founder of the KKK , Aldous Huxley and Salvador Dali.
Enjoy the gratuitous smoking and product placement.

Truly one of the last real journalists…never afraid to ask the unpopular or tough questions or call people on their bullshit.
The New York Times is reporting that MSNBC’s Tim Russert has died of a heart attack at the age of 58.
Russert suffered a massive heart attack and collapsed Friday afternoon in NBC’s Washington bureau, according to the New York Post
Russert was in the tracking booth, recording a track, when he collapsed. He returned from Italy Thursday night. His wife, Maureen Orth, and son Luke, are still in Italy.
