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.

How Trump changed his mind on tariffs +2 Peter Nicholas, Garrett Haake and Carol E. Lee Reporting from Washington <a href=https://http-mgmarket4.ru>mgmarket4.at</a> “Liberation Day” gave way to Capitulation Day last night. President Donald Trump pulled back yesterday on a series of harsh tariffs targeting friends and foes alike in an audacious bid to remake the global economic order. Image: President Donald Trump Saul Loeb / AFP - Getty Images Trump’s early afternoon announcement followed a harrowing week in which Republican lawmakers and confidants privately warned him that the tariffs could wreck the economy. His own aides had quietly raised alarms about the financial markets before he suspended a tariff regime that he had unveiled with a flourish just one week earlier in a Rose Garden ceremony. <a href=https://mgmarket4-at.com>mgmarket8.at</a> The stock market rose immediately after the about-face, ending days of losses that have forced older Americans who’ve been sinking their savings into 401(k)s to rethink their retirement plans. Read the full story here. 32m ago / 12:55 PM GMT+3 Sharesocial share icon trigger China's foreign ministry calls the U.S. a '21st century barbarian' Peter Guo Reporting from Hong Kong China's public language on its trade war with the U.S. has become increasingly bellicose and took a new turn today when Beijing's foreign ministry said the Trump administration's tariffs have made the U.S. a “barbarian of the 21st century.” Trump’s tariffs will “never America great again” ministry of foreign affairs spokesperson Huang Jingrui, wrote in an open letter today in Hong Kong’s newspaper South China Morning Post. <a href=https://mgmarket19.ru>mgmarket4 at</a> “A tariff-wielding barbarian who attempts to force countries to call and beg for mercy can never expect that call from China,” Huang said, adding that the U.S. is “obsessed with the art of bullying and blackmailing the entire world.” 47m ago / 12:40 PM GMT+3 Sharesocial share icon trigger EU welcomes 90-day tariff pause Peter Guo The EU President Ursula von der Leyen said today that the region welcomes Trump’s announcement to pause tariffs for 90 days. Von der Leyen said the EU remains “committed to constructive negotiations” with the U.S., according to a statement from her office. Meanwhile, Europe continues to focus on diversifying their trade partnerships, engaging with countries that account for 87% of global trade, she said. Trump’s tariffs have shown that the European internal market is the region’s “anchor of stability and resilience” in times of uncertainty, von der Leyen added. 1h ago / 12:27 PM GMT+3 Sharesocial share icon trigger Trade war with China 'to spark a wave of smuggling' Peter Guo Reporting from Hong Kong <a href=https://mgmarket6at.com>mgmarket2.at</a> Irregular trade including smuggling will most likely rise amid the U.S.' and China's tit-for-tat tariffs, an economist warns. The cost of tariffs has become “prohibitive to almost every company,” Tianchen Xu, senior economist at Economist Intelligence Unit. “As a result, trade flows in both directions will tumble, and irregular trade will proliferate, including smuggling, transshipment and systemic under-reporting of trade value during customs clearance,” Xu said in a note. Xu said trade negotiations and a partial de-escalation in the ongoing trade war may ensue in the coming months, but those tensions are likely to worsen in the short term between the world’s two largest economies. 1h ago / 12:09 PM GMT+3 Sharesocial share icon trigger California plant business owner says costs will double with tariffs Gadi Schwartz and Phil Helsel The owner of a California home decor and plant shop said that even in dealing locally, the sourcing of goods from China is impossible to avoid. mgmarket https://mgmarket18.ru

Tbilisi, Georgia — Jailed journalist Mzia Amaghlobeli gets weaker every day as her hunger strike has reached three weeks in Rustavi, a town near the Georgian capital of Tbilisi, her lawyer says. Now the 49-year-old is having difficulty walking the short distance from her cell to the room where they usually meet, and human rights officials, colleagues and family fear for her life. <a href=https://kra29-at.com>kra20.at</a> Amaghlobeli was arrested Jan. 12 during an anti-government protest in the coastal city of Batumi, one of over 40 people in custody on criminal charges from a series of demonstrations that have hit the South Caucasus nation of 3.7 million in recent months. <a href=https://kra22at.com>kra20 cc</a> The political turmoil follows a parliamentary election that was won by the ruling Georgian Dream party, although its opponents allege the vote was rigged. Protests highlight battle over Georgia's future. Here's why it matters. Its outcome pushed Georgia further into Russia's orbit of influence. Georgia aspired to join the European Union, but the party suspended accession talks with the bloc after the election. As it sought to cement its grip on power, Georgian Dream has cracked down on freedom of assembly and expression in what the opposition says is similar to President Vladimir Putin's actions in neighboring Russia, its former imperial ruler. kra21 cc https://kra30cc.ru
