Paul Nesbitt
04 May 2010 @ 11:25
I learned last night that a friend and industry
legend, Paul Nesbitt, died following a heart attack.
This is a shit thing that’s happened. Irrespective of
his talents as a news hack of the very best stripe,
Paul’s company was – is, if you prefer
– incomparable. Beatification following death is
trite and misguided, if understandable, and that’s
not what I’m going for here. There’s no need, and it
would be disingenuous; the Paul I knew was no saint.
But, fuck, he was smart, hilarious and genuinely
kind. That the world no longer contains Paul Nesbitt
is just horrible.
