Barry Farber
Mpls55408 via FlickrFarber, a conservative journalist, was widely regarded upon news of his passing as one of talk radio’s Founding Fathers, with a career going back to the mid-50s at New York City’s WNBC. His op-eds appeared in an ideologically diverse array of publications, including the New York Times and Reader’s Digest. Like his contemporaries William F. Buckley Jr. and Leo Brent Bozell Jr., Farber stimulated American conservativism’s revival in the late 20th century.
Walter E. Williams is missing from this list.
As I recall, Herman Cain had several health issues, which were the underlying (if not primary) contribution to his death. The “plannedemic” was a new arrival.
