Many of his most memorable dispatches were printed on the sports pages under the column heading “Egg in Your Beer,” and Halberstam remained a sportswriter until his death—the car crash came as he was traveling to an interview with a retired New York Giants quarterback. But Halberstam’s Crimson writings jumped off the sports page to the front page, and they touched upon the Cold War concerns that would reappear throughout his life work. He reported on the Red Scare that swept the nation in the early 1950s...
Halberstam, who died today in a car crash south of San Francisco at age 73, will be remembered for what he learned post-graduation—in particular, what he learned about the Vietnam War, and what he relayed to the American people through his Pulitzer Prize-winning dispatches for the New York Times.

Lead singer, songwriter, and tactician James Mercer directs the bandits as they distract car salesmen and steal the balloons attached to every car on the lot. The tune itself isn’t earth-shatteringly original, but it’s the sort of bouncy song that makes you want to be five years old again, dancing around in the living room with your...
