Description
For the record, Walter Winchell admittedly wasn't a Great Guy. But that didn't particularly interest him. Whad did was that he wanted to be a Great Newsman, and become the greatest of the Great Reporters. He drove himself night and day without mercy to reach that pinnacle, and he did. He was like Man o' War going to the post. He went to the whip as he broke from the gate, and he broke a record every time out.
