[edit] Correction of lineage

Just for the record, the correction I made was based on "Dr. Samuel Alexander Mudd and His Descendants", which Thomas B. Mudd contacted me about. Thomas is the "great-grandson of Dr. Samuel A. Mudd, the Maryland physician who was wrongfully convicted of conspiring in the Lincoln assassination." -- Zanimum 14:02, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Roger Mudd moment?"

I've read and heard the term "Roger Mudd moment" to describe a self-destructive utterance by a political candidate; any thoughts as to whether this should be added to this article or made a separate entry? Nhrenton 11:10, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] order of contents

The article seems to go to a summary (which is alright) but then starts with his latest achievements to his earliest achievements..seems unintuitive and confusing..

[edit] Roger at WTOP

I added the section about his moving to DC because I worked for WTOP for two years after he had moved to CBS and know the history. However, I am uncertain as to the year in which he began there. I'm happy to have it updated. WTOP was the launching pad for many successful network careeers, including that of Sam Donaldson and Steven Geer, both of which went to ABC News, and Harold (Hal) Walker, who was at CBS News for many years. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pdx photoman (talk • contribs) 18:15, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
