But he was also one of the most naturally gifted journalists I have worked with, with a clear eye on where a story was heading and inevitably getting there before the rest of us. He also loved Reuters deeply and would brook no dissent over its primacy as a provider of the best news in the world, a conviction well worth remembering today. ■
