You’ve read quite a bit by the late Mark Pittman of Bloomberg.
You’ve read quite a bit about him here at The Audit, where we thought he was one of the very best reporters working.

It got a lot of cheers and laughs at the funeral, but it’s languishing on YouTube, so we thought it could use some pointing out.
