Ed Bradley of CBS News died of leukemia Thursday. He was 65.
In March of 2000, Bradley landed the only TV interview with condemned Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh, who revealed that the form he filled out to rent the Ryder truck indicated he planned to use it for a four-day trip to Omaha. The story for "60 Minutes" earned Bradley one of his 19 Emmys.
The 2005-06 season of 60 Minutes marked Bradley's 26th year with the program. He joined CBS News as a stringer in its Paris bureau in September of 1971.
