I just read the NYT obituary. (It was not behind a paywall. I was surprised. Maybe they give us one.)
It reads as a history of television talk in the last part of the 20th Century. His ratings dropped in the 90s, but he had a long run through those changing times. The obit includes some telling quotes, some from him and one from Nora Ephron's book Heartburn.
