Ya, I saw this on the news this morning. I really did like how he covered the terror attacks on September 11. Quite the professional.

RIP.

And then quickly stopped again. It was a brief relapse (or so I read), and Jennings called himself "weak" for it. Of course, starting again after 9/11 by itself isn't enough to get lung cancer. His smoking before had already sealed it for him.
