Ben Bradlee
As an executive
editor of one of the leading daily newspapers in the United States, Benjamin
Bradlee went on to create history with his exceptional ways of journalism and
investigations. Being one of the most famous newspaper journalists of his era,
he is known to be responsible for publishing the infamous Pentagon papers and
exposing the Watergate presidential scandal. Through his never-dying spirit and
determination, he contributed news stories and reports to transform ‘The Post’
from an ordinary traditional paper into an influential and respectable
metropolitan daily, during his 26-year long tenure. His observations and
participations in meetings and conferences, though from the back-end, helped in
shaping America, especially during the post-war period. With journalism running
in his blood, he was nothing less than brilliant, charming, and game for
leadership, which only added to his new and compelling techniques of covering
stories, thereby becoming an inspiration for his staff and fellow workers. This
larger-than-life personality, who considered journalism more than just a
profession, also showed active participation in various institutions of
education, history and archeological research. He was referred to as a ‘true
newspaperman’ by the American President Barack Obama, upon his death.
