R.I.P Gwen Ifill - PBS News

[question everything]

Long before Monday, when Gwen Ifill, the renowned PBS journalist, died, at sixty-one, of cancer, this year had begun to look like a bouquet of hardships. It is a particular cruelty that Ifill, who was a standard-bearer for journalism, a mentor of young reporters, and a profoundly decent colleague, should depart now, when the country has never been more in need of those qualities.

1. She will be missed.

She lived just long enough to learn the outcome of the election, (if she was conscious).
Hopefully, the people around her lied and told her Hillary won.
