corps that Thomas was engaged to Douglas Cornell, chief White House correspondent 
for UPI's archival, The Associated Press.They were married in 1971. Cornell 
died 11 years later.Thomas stayed with UPI for 57 years, until 2000, 
when the company was purchased by News World Communications, which was founded 
by the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, leader of the Unification Church.At age 
79, Thomas was soon hired as a Washington-based columnist for newspaper 
publisher Hearst Corp.A self-described liberal, Thomas made no secret of 
her ill feelings for the second President Bush. "He is the worst 
president in all of American history," she told the Daily Breeze of 
Torrance, Calif.Thomas also was critical of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, 
asserting that the deaths of innocent people should hang heavily on Bush's 
conscience."We are involved in a war that is becoming more dubious every

-- later United Press International -- soon hired her to write local 
news stories for the radio wire. Her assignments were relegated at first 
to women's news, society items and celebrity profiles.Her big break came 
after the 1960 election that sent Kennedy to the White House, and 
landed Thomas her first assignment related to the presidency. She was sent 
to Palm Beach, Fla., to cover the vacation of the president-elect and 
his family.JFK's successor, Lyndon Johnson, complained that he learned of 
his daughter Luci's engagement from Thomas's story.Bigger and better assignments 
would follow for Thomas, among them President Richard M. Nixon's breakthrough 
trip to China in 1972.When the Watergate scandal began consuming Nixon's
