| Brian Hanrahan, one of the most famous BBC correspondents - best known for his coverage of the Falklands War - has died at the age of 61 after a short battle against cancer.
His reporting spanned the reshaping of Nato and the EU, as well as conflicts in Bosnia, Kosovo, and the Middle East |

| Most people are perfectly capable of reading/seeing/hearing the news for themselves.
The cut and paste merchants do it to look clever when they have nothing relevant to say, but still wish to post.
Ring any bells Mark? |

| God rest his soul and may his relatives find the strength to cope with his loss.
If I have one criticism of him, he gave up independent journalism and joined the embedded mob too easily. As we all know the first casualty of embedding is the truth. |

| Yenibob. Message 7. Not my feelings but the feelings of other members when threads start to deteriorate into slanging matches. |
