Pat Robinson Obituary – Cause of Death: Controversial televangelist, Pat Robertson dies at 93.
The Christian Broadcasting Network said in a statement on Thursday that Robertson passed away at home on June 8 while surrounded by family.
Pat Robertson’s long-running talk program, The 700 Club, served as a reliable source of information about domestic and foreign issues for generations of conservative Christians.
The contentious televangelist was best known for his work as a religious right architect who frequently made anti-gay remarks, a pioneer in the Christian broadcasting sector who helped Republican politicians rise to power, and for a brief period, as a politician with presidential aspirations.
Robertson, who was an ordained preacher and the son of a senior U.S. senator, had his roots in the white evangelical Christian church. He established the Christian Broadcasting Network, or CBN, in Virginia in 1960 while using telethons to cover expenses. In time, the network and its programs would become widely known.
