Nov. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Mark Pittman, the award-winning investigative reporter whose fight to open the Federal Reserve to more scrutiny led Bloomberg News to sue the central bank and win, died Nov. 25 in Yonkers, New York. He was 52.
Pittman suffered from heart-related illnesses. The precise cause of his death wasn’t known, said his friend William Karesh, vice president of the Global Health Program at the Bronx, New York-based Wildlife Conservation Society.

He was an old man. He had 52 years of life. I am putting my chips on he died of old age rather than the fed sacrificing him for the greater good of the country.
You've got to be kidding right? That is actually a fairly young age to die at...I know people as healthy and vibrant as can be well over that age...

Fostering Suspicion
At least he wasn't found dead under mysterious circumstances in a public park with a throw-down .38 in his hand, a .22 caliber wound to his neck and an army of staffers purging his office of incriminating evidence.
I mean hey, that would have been way too suspicious, and nobody could possibly get away with something as obvious as that!
People in their 50s do die of heart attacks all the time, and barring anything more unusual than Mr. Pittman's efforts involving the Federal Reserve to suggest foul play, it's probably a stretch to infer anything more sinister than an unfortunate health problem.
However, since this is ATS and we're not generally the types to accept anything we see at face value, a little healthy skepticism is never a bad thing.
