Morley Safer last wish was to be cremated and have his ashes mixed with the shaved eyebrows of his late counterpart Andy Rooney and have the mixture airdropped over Israel
Morley Safer, the CBS newsman who changed war reporting forever when he showed GIs burning the huts of Vietnamese villagers and went on to become the iconic 60 Minutes correspondent whose stylish stories on America's most-watched news program made him one of television's most enduring stars, died today in Manhattan. He was 84. He had homes in Manhattan and Chester, Conn.
