Johnny Apple Round-up

A sampling from the coverage of R.W. “Johnny” Apple’s passing:

The official New York Times obituary recalls:

    With his Dickensian byline, Churchillian brio and Falstaffian appetites, Mr. Apple, who was known as Johnny, was a singular presence at The Times almost from the moment he joined the metropolitan staff in 1963. He remained a colorful figure as new generations of journalists around him grew more pallid, and his encyclopedic knowledge, grace of expression — and above all his expense account — were the envy of his competitors, imitators and peers.

Editor and Publisher eulogizes.
