This clip aired on the final day that the honored ABC World News Tonight anchor Peter Jennings ever appeared again on television (5th April 2005). This is the day Jennings went public that he had been diagnosed with lung cancer; sadly, he passed away that upcoming August, he never again was well enough to anchor the broadcast. Jennings was the best anchor in the history of American television news, and certainly one of the best journalists of all time; he shall be greatly missed.

  • Peter Jennings is one, if not THE best newsman ever.

  • He was the best. On the 10th anniversary of 9/11 I particularly miss his voice and his journalistic wisdom.

  • I haven't watched the evening news very much since Peter's death. In my opinion, he was - quite simply -- the absolute best. I miss him and his intelligent, thoughtful reporting in addition to the way he helped those of us 'ordinary' people understand world events that didn't always make sense.

  • Oh my God he was such a good man...my step mom died of lung cancer..they gave her 6 months to live and she lived 7 days of those 6 months.....I quit smoking on one of the worse days of my life so I'd know I could handle anything without a cigarette ....that was 1988. If Peter had told himself not even 9/11 can made me smoke he may still be alive. Seeing someone you love die and of lung cancer is something you never want to see not even once.

  • I don't know what made me think of Peter Jennings today. he was just on my mind. R.I.P.

  • RIP Peter!!

  • Peter Jennings was my favorite news anchor. RIP.
