"Fox News anchor Chris Wallace has paid tribute to his late father Mike Wallace. The legendary 60 Minutes journalist died on Sunday (April 8) at the age of 93. Alec Baldwin, Hugh Hefner and Larry King are among the stars who have eulogised the late television host on social media. Fox News Sunday host Chris has now addressed his father&amp;#039;s passing in a press statement, where he praised Mike&amp;#039;s commitment to journalism. &amp;quot;My dad was everything you saw on television: fascinating and funny, challenging and exasperating. He was the best reporter I have ever known,&amp;quot; Chris said. The anchor continued: &amp;quot;While work often came first for him, over the last 20 years, he worked hard to make connections with his family. He became my best friend.  &amp;quot;And at the end, he was surrounded by children, grandchildren and even great-grandchildren. I already miss him terribly.&amp;quot; Mike hosted the landmark news magazine 60 Minutes for 38 seasons before stepping down as a regular contributor in 2006. Christopher Plummer earned a National Society of Film Critics Award for his portrayal of the 60 Minutes host in 1999&amp;#039;s The Insider.
