A look at Dick Cheney's influential and polarizing legacy

Season 2025 Episode 308 | 11m 34s

Dick Cheney, one of the most influential and polarizing vice presidents in American history, died at age 84. He served alongside President George W. Bush for two terms, a period that saw the 9/11 attacks and the start of two major wars. Cheney's family said he passed away due to complications of pneumonia, along with cardiac and vascular disease. John Yang looks back at Cheney's career and legacy.
