Bill Moyers, the previous White House press secretary for Lyndon Johnson who transitioned right into a multi-decade profession as a reporter at shops like PBS and CBS Information, died on Thursday. He was 91.
Moyers’ son, William Cope Moyers, instructed the Washington Post that the famed reporter died as a result of issues from prostate most cancers. The Manhattan resident handed away at Memorial Sloan Kettering Most cancers Middle in New York Metropolis.
The New York Occasions described Moyers as President Johnson’s “closest help,” serving to the Texas Democrat win the 1964 election due to his “Daisy Lady” advert, which implied Republican nominee Barry Goldwater was to not lead the nation within the occasion of a nuclear disaster.
