I always liked her, she was kind of a "do no harm" journalist. It's hard in that line of work not to really offend all kinds of people.

An excellent author too. My sympathy to her loved ones.

I enjoyed watching Cokie Roberts and always respected her as a journalist.  RIP Cokie, you will be missed.

I admired Cokie Roberts a great deal.  Her late sister Barbara was mayor of the town in which she we lived.  My husband was involved in local politics so knew her.  We were privileged to have met Cokie on several occasions.
