I thought he was looking tired lately .. <br><br><blockquote>ABCNEWS anchor Peter Jennings and President David Westin sent the following e-mails to their colleagues this morning: <br><br>Westin: <br><br>This morning, Peter Jennings told his senior staff at World News Tonight that yesterday afternoon he was diagnosed with lung cancer. I include below the full text of Peter’s note to the group of people with whom he works most closely. <br><br>He will begin outpatient treatment next week here in New York. It’s both Peter’s and my expectation that he will anchor World News Tonight during the period of treatment to the extent he can do so comfortably; but, we should also expect him to be off the broadcast from time to time, depending on how he feels.</blockqutoe><br><br>more<br><br>****************<br>no sig

Oh wow. I didn't know he was a smoker. <br><br>Edit: From the news article..."Jennings is a former smoker who gave up the habit several years ago, the network said."<br><br>That's too bad.
