To be serious for a moment: Both of the radio shows I listen to in the late-morning, The Diane Rehm Show (NPR) and The Tony Kornheiser Show (ESPN) were missing their hosts because of Katherine Graham's funeral.

There were two people in Washington whom everybody knew and respected (if not necessarily loved) and everybody referred to by honorific. One was Jack Kent Cooke -- who was always Mr. Cooke -- but he was a really nasty human being, even if he was a good team owner. The other was Katherine Graham. Despite some dubious associtaes (Henry Kissinger!) it seemed like she was a good and warm person, in addition to being a businesswoman, socialite and mover and shaker.
