Rex Murphy passed away last night from cancer. He was one of the sharpest (and funniest) column writers in Canadian history. His long tenured career saw him work off and on at the CBC for decades, the Globe and Mail, and for the last decade, he was a columnist with the National Post.
Notwithstanding this man's incredible storied career, the Canadian Press and Toronto Star decided to take a giant shit on his legacy by actually posting the following article last night: https://www.thestar.com/news/canada...cle_c942ca06-f4c5-5681-ba89-17574b19c271.html
"The National Post is reporting that Rex Murphy, the pro-oil pundit who was at once the steady stickhandler of a national call-in radio show and a driver of divisive online discourse, has died."
RIP to a legend.
