Oh WOW. I'm shocked.

I have followed his "trials and trevails" in the Washington Post--how he went into hospice thinking he was dying, rallied, got out of hospice, and continued writing.

I don't know why this is so shocking but I wasn't expecting it.

He's dead again?

RIP, Art. You were a major talent and brought insight and humor to literally millions of people over the years. I'm proud and honored to be one of those millions. Thank you..................

So sad. I've been reading Art Buchwald for a very long time, its like losing an old friend.

So talented and original--there aren't many with his astute and humorous gift for the written word. Very sad.

He had been sick for a long time. I love his columns when I was growing up. He was a very funny man.
