Mike Wallace Was an Icon of Television, Not Journalism
CBS News' Mike Wallace, who died over the weekend at 93, is being hailed as an icon of broadcast journalism for his foundational role as 60 Minutes' investigative bulldog. This is bullshit. He was a failed soap actor and vaudeville hack named Myron who just wanted to be on television. He was as much a journalist as Ryan Seacrest.
Myron Wallace was a newsreader and paid actor who played a part—very, very well—on your television screens. His producers, who reported out and prepared his broadcasts, were journalists.
