Bernard Shaw, the venerable TV news anchor who helped turn CNN into a powerhouse, has died. He was 82.
Shaw died Wednesday from pneumonia not related to COVID-19, his family said.
Based in Washington D.C. when CNN launched, Shaw, known as Bernie to friends and colleagues, was the cable news channel’s lead anchor for two decades until his retirement in 2001.
During his tenure, Shaw anchored major breaking news events, like the attempted assassination of President Reagan in 1981, the Tiananmen Square student revolt in 1988 and every presidential election.
