Today, JJ’s Star Spangled Salute honor broadcasting legend and Army Veteran Charles Osgood. From 1971 to 2017, Charles produced the daily commentary called “The Osgood File”. From 1994 to 2016 he hosted CBS Sunday morning, a position he earned – replacing news legend Charles Kuralt. Charles joined the Army during the Korean War and said that one of the highlights of his career was being the personal broadcaster to President Dwight D. Eisenhower while the commander in chief recovered from a heart attack in 1955. Osgood’s job was to play records for the ailing president, and only the president. Thank you for all the stories you told Charles and THANK YOU for your service.
