From the New York Times "Reactions" link, above. This is the kind of thing that sounds so…Read More intrusive (about his loss of memory) that if a family member had told it to me before his death, I'd have asked the interviewee again whether he or she really wanted to make it public. On the other hand, I can't point to any harm it would have done when he said it or afterward:
"In a recent interview, Mr. Wallace’s son Chris, who is the anchor of “Fox News Sunday” on Fox, said that his father 'is 93 and showing it for the first time.'
“'He’s in a facility in Connecticut. Physically, he’s okay. Mentally, he’s not,' Chris Wallace said. 'He still recognizes me and knows who I am, but he’s uneven. The interesting thing is, he never mentions "60 Minutes." It’s as if it didn’t exist. It’s as if that part of his memory is completely gone. The only thing he really talks about is family—me, my kids, my grandkids, his great-grandchildren. There’s a lesson there. This is a man who had a fabulous career and for whom work always came first. Now he can’t even remember it.'”

The 1999 movie "The Insider" recounted the events surrounding Jeffrey Wigand's…Read More whistle-blowing about what a big tobacco company knew about the hazards of smoking, and what happened when Wigand told "60 Minutes" about what he knew. Wallace criticized the way the movie portrayed him, calling it inaccurate, when he spoke at the New Canaan Library some time after the film's release. (Christopher Plummer, who lives in Weston, played Wallace in the movie.)
I covered the event for "The Hour" and spoke to Wallace briefly afterward, to ask him more about his objections to the movie. He welcomed being questioned about it, and he patiently answered all my questions. When I was done, he asked me if there was anything more I wanted to know, and told me that if I did, I could contact him again at his office. That impressed me.
