So, who's Murrow?
 

Anybody know? And why is he turning over in his grave?

Ed Murrow is a reknowned journalist, and I believe one of the first TV reporters ? The Ed Murrow award in television is named after him...it's like the Oscar award for journalists. He set very high standards for journalism and gave a speech about it on TV a long time ago. The whole song is a stab at today's media, enough to make Mr. Murrow turn over in his grave.

A Murrow link.
 

Here's a pretty good link for info on Murrow. He's quite a hero in the journalistic world--at least to those who aren't afraid to take on the status quo.

It's easy to see why Lindsey wanted to write about the man

I have to admit, I AM from the US...and consider myself pretty up on things, too! But if I ever learned of Murrow, it has been forgotten. ;-)
