LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Rest in peace, Mr. Lehrer

OPINION:

I liked and admired PBS news anchor Jim Lehrer (“Jim Lehrer of the ’MacNeil-Lehrer Report’ dies at 85,” Web, Jan. 23). He believed news is a public good, not a commodity. He was always completely on the level in reporting, interviewing and moderating debates. His life was a gift that strengthened our democracy. We will remember him always and forever. Jim Lehrer, rest in peace.
