Taking advantage of the east coast hurricane displacing all political news this weekend, a chance for me to catch up with something from July 4 when, as part of the Ronald Reagan Centennial celebrations, a ten-foot tall bronze statue of Reagan was unveiled in London.
Only CBS’s Early Show aired a full story on the event in which reporter Elizabeth Palmer concluded that in Britain he’ll be remembered “for a rare combination of skill, luck and courage that gave him a giant’s role in modern history.”
Back on July 4 on NewsBusters, I posted “Video: Reagan Statue Unveiled in Budapest and Street Named for Him in Prague,” with clips from short FNC and MSNBC news items on those events which took place in the days before the London ceremony.
