I always learned something new when I spoke with Mark
He was so large -- in spirit and in person -- and his passion for his craft was so great, it is impossible to think that it could just end
His colleagues will miss his laughter and generous sense of mission. Bloomberg readers were rewarded by his many achievements, culminating with a federal court ruling that validated his search for records of taxpayer-financed policies withheld from the public and the Gerald Loeb Award.
Hopefully, we will be able to inform the people enough to know how badly we’re getting screwed
We need to know how to prevent it from happening again, and we need to know who did it.
He had an unerring sense of the big story
He was dogged in pursuit of the truth.
He was a wonderful friend, a seeker of truth, a fighter for right, a proud family man, a big and jovial hand, a lover of food, drink and celebration of life
This is a personal loss, a professional loss and a societal loss. He is truly irreplaceable.
This machine kills fascists.
