Gary Deeb, the influential Chicago TV and radio critic once dubbed "The Terror of the Tube" by Time magazine, died May 17 at 79. I worked as Deeb's legman at the Sun-Times from 1980 to 1983.

I was interviewed for "Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action," a new Netflix documentary series directed by @lukesewell.bsky.social. I hope you'll watch it.

Walter Cronkite, November 22, 1963.
