American Masters "Edward R. Murrow: This Reporter"
"This...is London." With those trademark words, crackling over the airwaves from a city in the midst of the blitzkrieg, Edward R. Murrow began a journalistic career that had no equal. From the opening days of World War II through his death in 1965, the CBS executive-turned-star-reporter had an unparalleled influence on the development of broadcast journalism. His voice was universally recognized, and a generation of radio and television journalists emulated his style. His pioneering television documentaries have more than once been credited with changing the course of history, and to this day his name is synonymous with courage and perseverance in the search for the truth.Air Date
