I think they must have wished for privacy at the end. Several weeks ago the Ashbrook Center announced he had pulled out their annual dinner for which he was the keynote speaker because he was very ill and his doctor didn’t want him to travel. A few blogs picked that up, and I think everyone feared it meant the end was in sight.

Well the thing that’s irritating me is that it sure sounds from the way they’re reporting this (no news since 2007, without pointing out that there’s been no news since 2007) means that everyone in the journalism world knew exactly what was going on. And now they’re just pretending like there’s nothing wrong with that. One line, like, “and in late months, wishing for privacy, his family kept his health details to themselves” and I’d have been all, “Oh that’s so sad”, but this way is just weird and aggravating.
