https://www.tmz.com/2023/02/05/charles-kimbrough-dead-dies-murphy-brown/Charles Kimbrough -- a longstanding star on the sitcom 'Murphy Brown' -- has died.
His son confirmed the news to the New York Times, saying his father had passed almost a month ago ... way back on Jan. 11 in Culver City, CA. No other details about a cause of death were released.
The actor will certainly best be remembered as Jim Dial on the '80s/'90s hit show, where he played cranky veteran TV anchor, Jim Dial -- who delivered the news alongside Candice Bergen's Murphy, and who was shaped after Walter Cronkite and other legacy newsmen.
