Elizabeth Llorente at Foxnews.com reports on the death of
Charles Krauthammer.
Charles Krauthammer, a longtime Fox News contributor,
Pulitzer Prize winner, Harvard-trained psychiatrist and best-selling author who
came to be known as the dean of conservative commentators, died Thursday. He
was 68.
His death had been expected after he wrote a heartbreaking
letter to colleagues, friends and viewers on June 8 that said in part “I have
been uncharacteristically silent these past ten months. I had thought that
silence would soon be coming to an end, but I’m afraid I must tell you now that
fate has decided on a different course for me…
“Recent tests have revealed that the cancer has returned.
There was no sign of it as recently as a month ago, which means it is
aggressive and spreading rapidly. My doctors tell me their best estimate is
that I have only a few weeks left to live. This is the final verdict. My fight
is over.” The letter continued, “I leave this life with no regrets. It was a
wonderful life -- full and complete with the great loves and great endeavors
that make it worth living.”
