Gwen Ifill’s death and Corey Lewandowski’s continued living pretty much proves that there is no God.

I think that was confirmed by Tom Brady’s birth.

Yet, somehow, the existence of the devil is confirmed by Tom Brady’s life. There’s just no way he didn’t sell his soul to the devil. None.

So sorry to hear of this. Gwen Ifill was my favorite moderator - ever. Intelligent, knowledgeable, grounded, humorous…
We’ll miss you. :cry:

Shitty year.

As someone who puts their trust in NPR news Gwen will be missed. Not many news people with her integrity remain.

2016 is turning out to be not a good year. I already have a bad feeling for 2017. It might be worse.

I haven’t had the TV on since the 8th of Nov. And rarely had the truck radio on…the truck stays tuned to NPR however.
This sucks.
Really really sucks.

I’ve had the TV on, but I haven’t watched one minute of cable news since then. It’s just too much.

Gwen was one of the few professionals left in journalism. Very sad.

She was a real journalist. She was passed over as host of MTP, GMA and other shows (guess why) but she remained professional and went on to host a National News hour. She was the consummate professional. This is a very sad day. R.I.P. Gwen.

I have resorted to watching Hallmark Channel movies… always a happy ending. Don’t know when I can go back to reality of what’s happening.

I tried watching the Lifetime channel for awhile but I tired of Meredith Baxter-Birney always walking into doors.
