Waar geschiedenis werd geschreven, was Sander Vanocur daar vaak met de hardnekkige vragen. De baanbrekende journalist die meer dan 40 jaar lang politiek behandelde voor televisie en print, stierf aan complicaties door dementie op maandag 16 september 2019, terwijl hij in de hospice-zorg in Santa Barbara, Californië, volgens De New York Times. Hij was 91.

Vanocur was een van de vier journalisten in het panel van het eerste op televisie uitgezonden presidentiële debat tussen Richard Nixon en John F. Kennedy, bekeken door 70 miljoen kijkers in 1960. Meer dan drie decennia later was hij een van de panelleden voor het debat tussen George HW Bush, Bill Clinton en Ross Perot in 1992.

Hij organiseerde ook twee series over de GESCHIEDENIS, Films op tijd en Geschiedenis & # x2019; s Business. Voor Films op tijd, hij interviewde ooit Oliver Stone en Anthony Hopkins over de film uit 1995 Nixon, waarbij de afbeeldingen van de film worden vergeleken met de werkelijke historische gebeurtenissen. & # x201C; It & # x2019; s in het oog van de toeschouwer, & # x201D; Vanocur vertelde de Los Angeles Times van zijn nauwkeurigheid. & # x201C; Een deel van mij rebelleert tegen losheid met de feiten. Het andere deel zegt dat mensen het recht hebben om geschiedenis op hun eigen manier te interpreteren ... Ik denk dat hij zijn opvattingen uitzet en in de film zet, wat zijn recht is. Maar is het een accurate geschiedenis? Ik denk het niet & # x2019; t denk ik. & # X201D;

Hij zelf verscheen ook in films als een journalist, met optredens in 1971 & # x2019; s The Gang That Couldn & # x2019; t Rechte shoot, 1980 & # x2019; s Til de Titanic op, 1993 & # x2019; s Dave, 1996 & # x2019; s Wegkomen met moord en 1994 & # x2019; s Zonder waarschuwing.Hij ontving ook de E.W. Scripps School of Journalism & # x2019; s Carr Van Anda Award.

Geboren op 8 januari 1928 in Cleveland, heette zijn naam oorspronkelijk Sander Vinocur. Maar nadat zijn moeder en zijn advocaatvader gescheiden waren, verhuisde ze met haar kinderen naar Peoria, Illinois, en veranderde de spelling van hun achternaam in Vanocur omdat ze & # x201C; boos was op de oude man, & # x201D; als De New York Times zegt Vanocur vertelde de krant St. Petersburg, Florida, De avond onafhankelijk.

Vanocur studeerde af aan de Western Military Academy in Alton, Illinois en Northwestern University, en studeerde ook aan de London School of Economics. Hij diende ook in het leger.

Hij begon zijn carrière als verslaggever voor De Manchester Guardian en werkte voor de BBC en CBS News, voordat ze naar De New York Times in 1955. In 1957 verhuisde hij naar NBC News waar hij verschillende functies vervulde als correspondent voor het Witte Huis, Vandaag toon D.C.-correspondent, De Huntley-Brinkley-rapport bijdragende redacteur en Eerste dinsdag gastheer. In de vroege jaren 1970 verliet hij NBC voor PBS, gevolgd door stints bij De Washington Post van 1975 tot 1977 en ABC News van 1977 tot 1991.

Een van zijn meest opvallende interviews waren het praten met Martin Luther King, Jr., in de Ebenezer Baptist Church minder dan een jaar voordat hij werd vermoord en Robert Kennedy in Los Angeles in het Ambassador Hotel, net voordat Kennedy werd vermoord in 1968.

& # x201C; I & # x2019; ben een groot voorstander van de persvrijheid & # x2014; zolang ze iets te zeggen hebben, & # x201D; hij zei in 2004 in een toespraak van Stanford University.

Vanocur was ook consultant bij het Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions, professor communicatie aan de Duke University, professional-in-residence bij The Freedom Forum in Arlington, Virginia, en had zijn eigen communicatieconsultancybedrijf, Old Owl Communications.

Hij was getrouwd met Edith Pick in 1956 en had twee zonen, Christoper en Nicholas. Nadat Pick in 1975 stierf, trouwde hij met Virginia Backus Vancour, die hem overleeft. Hij & # x2019; s overleefde ook door een stiefdochter, Daphne Wood Hicks.

    <p>Another solid Bitcoin Tumbler option, Bitcoin Laundry requires a minimum deposit of 0.01 BTC to be made but makes up for this with a lower transaction fee of 2% coupled with a 0.0004 BTC network fee. Support for multiple addresses and customer options is provided with users required to provide confirmation for only 1 address. While there is no referral program available, Bitcoin Laundry does offer users with a letter of guarantee for their peace of mind.</p><br><ul> <li><a href=https://yomix9.com/>Yomix</a> : Uses stealth pools to anonymize transactions </li> <li>Mixero : Excellent customer support </li> <li>Coin Mixer : Fast payouts </li> <li>Bitcoin Mixer : It offers flexible transaction fees and a low minimum transaction limit</li> <li>Coinmize : Zero-log policy </li> </ul><br><br><h2 id=menu1>1. Yomix - Uses stealth pools to anonymize transactions </h2><p>Straight off, Yomix is the only Bitcoin Tumbler we’ve ever crossed paths with which offers a “Free trial”! The free trial obviously doesn’t mean they’ll just send you free money; rather no fee or commission is charged for this free trial although it’s limited to, and is exclusive for 0.0001BTC tumbling only. Their process of acquiring the clean coins is quite unique, obtained from various stock exchanges such as DigiFinex, Cryptonex, Binance and so on; ensuring cleaner coins than some other questionable sources pertaining to their claimed check using a proprietary algorithm. In the background, a user’s money is first mixed in their pre-mixer with other coins; then sent to the stock exchanges for further mixing with other traders’ coins and then summoned back to be sent back to the users. The major flaw with the tumbler however is its lack of user-control, users have absolutely no control over the time-delays meaning you can’t specify the duration gap between the outputs rather it’s randomized between 1-6 hours. Distribution-control too can’t be controlled and the mixer sends randomized outputs to the addresses. The fee can’t be controlled by the users either and is again randomly set between 4-5%+ 0.00015 BTC network fee, truth be told it’s one of the highest tumbler fee we’ve ever seen. The minimum deposit limit is 0.0001 BTC and the maximum being 50BTC/ transaction.Yomix is one of those mixing services that keep your crypto safe. The platform will take your bitcoin, mix it with other deposits, and give you the same amount of bitcoin in return. It’s designed to reduce bitcoin tracking, “clean” your coins, and help ensure anonymity on the transparent bitcoin network. A bitcoin mixer service like BitMix.Biz will take your bitcoin, then give you different bitcoin in return. The platform collects everyone’s bitcoin deposits, mixes them up into one central account, and then returns the bitcoins to users. You get the same amount of bitcoin (minus a fee), but different bitcoin from different parts of the blockchain. With BitMix.Biz, you get a letter of guarantee. That letter of guarantee is proof of BitMix.Biz’s obligations. When they give you their bitcoin address, they’ll provide a digitally-signed confirmation that this address has genuinely been generated by the server. That letter is always signed from the BitMix.Biz main bitcoin account (that account is publicly available on BitMix.Biz). The platform also uses a special 12 symbol “code” to ensure you get your bitcoin back every time you use the service. You save that code. That code also 100% excludes you from receiving your own coins anytime in the future. With Yomix you will get: Fully Anonymity After your order is invalid, BitMix.Biz will remove any information about your transactions. Absolutely no logs or personality identifying information is kept regarding your use of the BitMix.Biz service. Instant Transfer Money is instantly transferred to your address after your transaction is confirmed. Partner Program Yomix pays users when they refer others to the platform. They’ll pay for every transaction made by an invited user. The platform charges a mining fee of 0.4 to 4%. You can set the fee manually when you’re mixing your bitcoins. The address fee is 0.0005 BTC per output address to cover any transaction fees charged by miners. BitMix.Biz’s mixing process takes up to 24 hours, although it’s usually “almost instant” depending on the current service load. You’re required to mix a minimum of 0.007 BTC and a maximum of 1000 BTC. Transactions outside this range will not be accepted.One of the most currency-rich mixers in the industry, letting us Mix not just Bitcoin but Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ethereum (coming soon) is what Yomix is. Also flaunts probably the most colourful and easy to use Interfaces I’ve ever seen. Provides 100% Control to users regarding every aspect of the mix. As in, users control the exact amount of fee (to the 4th decimal point!), the exact time-delay (by the minute and not just hours) and also the Percentage distribution. It’s transparent and even has a “fee calculator” which displays the exact amount of funds a user would receive on each additional address, as well as the total service and the address-fee. Maximum 8 total output addresses allowed. The minimum service fee a user can pay is 1%, with the maximum being 5%. The additional address fee is 0.00045529 BTC, 0.01072904 LTC, and 0.00273174 BCH for Bitcoin, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash respectively. Has three fund-pools, and they all have funds from different sources in them which have different levels of anonymity. Does have a “No Logs Policy”. No registration required.Yomix is another simple yet trustworthy Bitcoin Tumbler service. And one of the primary differences it has compared to the other platforms on this list is that it can accommodate really “large volume transactions”. There is no maximum transaction limit as such, considering how their reserve is really huge and you’ll need to be a millionaire before you can run them out of funds. If any limit is breached, you are notified before you make the payment. The minimum transaction 0.001BTC, any amount lower than this is is considered a donation, like in the case of PriveCoin, and isn’t sent back to the customer. The minimum fee is 0.5%, with an additional 0.0005BTC for every deposited transaction. You can set a custom fee for added anonymity and they also provide a letter or guarantee like all the mentionable Bitcoin Tumblers out there.</p><p> Pros: <ul><li>Has impressive time delays</li><li>It offers flexible transaction fees and a low minimum transaction limit</li></ul></p> <h2 id=menu2>2. Mixero - Excellent customer support </h2><p>Mixero is a Bitcoin mixing service that provides privacy by using the ‘Bitcoin Mixer 2.0’ algorithm to shuffle bitcoins. Unlike other similar tumbling services that mix your coins with the coins of other users, this platform mixes your crypto with the crypto bought by them directly from the cryptocurrency stock exchanges. Mixero verifies the newly purchased coins with a scoring system with the help of innovative algorithms and outfoxes such technologies as blockchain volume analysis, cluster analysis, taint analysis, etc. It means that you will receive your BTC back split into random parts, and even at the different addresses if needed. Consequently, your privacy is protected as there is no connection to you. And it takes up to 6 hours to complete your request. Another privacy feature of this mixer service is that it does not require registration and it does not store logs. All the transactions are digitally signed with letters of guarantee that you can check on the website at any moment. They also provide 24/7 technical support. MixTum.io will charge you a 5% Fee from your transaction as well as a network fee of 0.00015 BTC. The platform provides two versions – for Clearnet and Tor browsers.Mixero has a deposit requirement of 0.001 BTC and supports a maximum of 2 different addresses. Registration is not compulsory but there is a service charge of 4 – 5% on the amount being transferred. For those with a need for additional privacy, Mixero also accepts Bitcoins with a no log policy.How it works: it has its own cryptocurrency reserve, which can be represented as a chain of bitcoins. When you transfer your funds to the Blender io, the resource sends your funds to the end of the chain and sends you new coins from the beginning of the chain that have nothing to do with the old coins. therefore, there can be no connection between incoming and outgoing coins. Only coins that go from your wallet to the Mixero address can be tracked through the public ledger, but no further. Blender io does not require you to register or provide any information other than the “receiving address“! It does not require identity confirmation and registration, but it is mandatory to provide in addition to the “receiving address”. The additional withdrawal delay feature has been extended to the maximum and offers installation up to 24 times a day. Other servers do not have such a wide range of latencies. Each set of unrefined coins can be split into as many as 8 pieces and sent to different addresses with an additional fee of 0.00008 BTC per address.Mixero is another simple yet trustworthy Bitcoin Tumbler service.

    It wasn’t the most contentious meeting the Oval Office has ever seen. Nor was it the warmest. <a href=https://kra34-cc.ru>kra30</a> Instead, the highly anticipated meeting Tuesday between President Donald Trump and his new Canadian counterpart Mark Carney fell somewhere in the middle: neither openly hostile nor outwardly chummy, evincing very little neighborliness, at least the type used on neighbors one likes. <a href=https://kra--32-cc.ru>kraken30</a> The midday talks illustrated neatly the new dynamic between the once-friendly nations, whose 5,525-mile border — the world’s longest — once guaranteed a degree of cooperation but which, to Trump, represents something very different. <a href=https://kra--32-cc.ru>kra31.at</a> “Somebody drew that line many years ago with, like, a ruler, just a straight line right across the top of the country,” Trump said in the Oval Office as his meeting was getting underway. “When you look at that beautiful formation when it’s together – I’m a very artistic person, but when I looked at that, I said: ‘That’s the way it was meant to be.’” That is not how Carney believes it was meant to be. “I’m glad that you couldn’t tell what was going through my mind,” Carney told reporters later that day about the moment Trump made that remark. kra32 https://kra---32--cc.ru Still, Carney didn’t entirely hold his tongue. In a meeting dominated by Trump’s comments — he spoke 95% of the time on all manner of topics, from the Middle East to Barack Obama’s presidential library to the state of high-speed rail in California — it was the new prime minister’s pushback on the president’s ambition to make Canada the 51st US state that stood out. “As you know from real estate, there are some places that are never for sale,” he said, drawing a begrudging “that’s true” from Trump before Carney carried on. kraken32 https://kra-32---at.ru

    A? ship that US and Philippine forces planned to sink beat them to it. <a href=https://mgmarket-4-at.ru>megalinks.at</a> A former US World War II-era warship, which survived two of the Pacific War’s most important battles, was supposed to go down in a blaze of glory in a live-fire exercise off the western coast of the Philippines as part of annually held joint military drills. <a href=https://megaweb16at.ru>mgmarket3.at</a> Instead, before the bombs and missiles could fly, it slipped slowly beneath the South China Sea Monday morning, age and the ocean catching up to it before modern weaponry could decimate it. The ex-USS Brattleboro was to be the main target for the maritime strike (MARSTRIKE) portion of the annual US-Philippine “Balikatan” exercise, which began April 21 and runs to May 9. <a href=https://megaweb16at.ru>mgmarket4.at</a> “The vessel was selected because it exceeded its service life and was no longer suitable for normal operations,” according to a statement from the Armed Forces of the Philippines. Chinese coast guard offices display their national flag on a tiny sandbar in the disputed Sandy Cay in April, 2025. Related article China and Philippines unfurl competing flags on disputed South China Sea sandbars, reviving tensions A US Navy spokesperson told USNI News last month that the? 81-year-old ship was to be the target for US Marine Corps F/A-18 fighter jets during the exercise. A report from the official Philippine News Agency (PNA) said it was to be hit by US and Philippine forces with a combination of anti-ship missiles, bombs and automatic cannon fire. But as the 184-foot-long vessel was being towed to its station for the exercise, 35 miles west of Zambales province on the northern Philippine island of Luzon, it took on water, the Philippine military statement said. mg2 at https://megaweb-16at.ru “Due to rough sea conditions that we are currently experiencing in the exercise box and with its long service life, as is expected, she took on a significant amount of water and eventually sank,” Philippine Navy spokesperson Capt. John Percie Alcos said, according to PNA. He said the vessel was not damaged while being towed. The ship sank quietly at 7:20 a.m. local time near the spot where it was to be obliterated later in the day, according to the Philippine military. Other elements of the MARSTRKE exercise would go on, the military statement said. The Philippine and US joint task forces “will rehearse virtual and constructive fire missions,” the statement said, without detailing what elements were still scheduled as part of the drill. “The combined force will still achieve its training objectives,” it added. mgmarket4.at https://mgmarket-4-at.ru The Philippine military said there was no environmental danger from the sinking as the vessel had been cleaned before being towed out for the exercise.
