Hugo Gurdon suggests Dick Cheney's reputation largely created by 'left-wing messaging'

Washington Examiner Editor-in-Chief Hugo Gurdon said the late former Vice President Dick Cheney fell victim to a “cartoonish representation” of his career.

Cheney died Monday at the age of 84, with his family saying the cause of death was “complications of pneumonia and cardiac arrest.” Gurdon said Cheney leaves behind a legacy as “one of the most powerful and most influential vice presidents of the modern era,” but has often been given more credit than due.
