I wish someone had the full film of this update. This was such a tragic case. She had such potential, and lost it all so young..

It figures that it would be you who would say something as brash, cold, callous, and crude as these comments you make.
You are many things, none of the least of which is repetitious and tired.

ass alone. do me the same favor.

I didn't start up anything with you. When you attack my social class, it is very personal, and you need to be called out for the racist homophobic ignorant small-minded coward that you truly are.
It's so easy for any ghetto garbage to be tough online-you're just a weak scared little chicken shit with a whole lot of mouth.
Truth.

Read "Golden Girl" to get perspective of the pressure on Savitch. Males desperately wanted her to fail. She had a knack for picking awful men. She wanted comfort and support & they used her as a "trophy". A tragic life.

I remember my mother calling and wandering "if that lady that just did the news was having a stroke". I did not see it at the time, I was watching NBC but had left the room when this aired. It was all over the news the next day that she was drunk. I don't think she ever appeared again, I think NBC suspended her. And I remember just a couple of weeks later hearing she had died.

It was a terrible ... ( 1 week ago by maxtexture)

It was a terrible tragedy.
There was a movie in 1995 starring Sela Ward as Jessica Savitch, and what a tortured and challenging life she had. The loss of her father at a very young age, her zealous ambition, her addictions, and her tumultuous love affairs.

It was all related ... ( 1 week ago by Cashforwardx10)

It was all related to drugs.
Later after she died they did news stories on her drug usage and she was slurring words just like this one.

I didn't know she did drugs?
can someone fill me in please?

I loved these ... ( 2 days ago by jpop405)

I loved these pieces from NBC news. Jessica always made me feel that news events were being reported with the upmost of care and just the right amount of gravity. It was comforting to see her every evening and of course I too thought she was suffering from some kind of ailment on-air in this segment. I would never have dreamed drugs or alcohol. Never. I still think of her often over 20 yrs later! No other news anchor can touch her screen presence or talent. Thank God for Youtube!
