Denzel Washington, Meryl Streep, and Jim Carrey all have something in common. They are actors who’ve managed to have not one, two, or three hits in their careers, but a multitude.

Phil Donahue passed away Sunday night, after a long illness. He was beloved by those who knew him and by many who didn’t. He started as a local reporter in Ohio, was a trailblazer in bringing social issues to a national audience as a daytime broadcast TV host, and then he was pretty-much banished from TV by MSNBC because he—accurately, correctly, and morally—questioned the horrific U.S. invasion of Iraq.
