Dec 31, 2024, 03:08 PM
Aaron Brown, a former ABC News and CNN anchor renowned for his coverage of the September 11 attacks, has died at the age of 76, his wife Charlotte Raynor confirmed. Brown, who previously anchored at KING 5 in Seattle, became a television news legend for his 17-hour marathon broadcast during 9/11, where his calm demeanor and thoughtful reporting held the nation's attention. From 2001 to 2005, he anchored CNN's "NewsNight," known for his rigorous questioning and unique presentation style. "He got to do the work that he loved," his wife said in a statement. After leaving CNN, Brown had a profound influence on journalism students at Arizona State University's Walter Cronkite School of Journalism. Colleagues described him as having an "extraordinary literary sensibility" and praised his exceptional journalistic skills and lasting legacy in American broadcasting.
