Edward R. Hero appeared in the Dinosaurs episode "And the Winner Is...." A revered senior political analyst for DNN, Hero asked probing questions of both Earl Sinclair and B.P. Richfield during the campaign for Chief Elder. Hero's intelligence and integrity impressed the Pangaean voters, and despite his non-candidacy, the newsman finds himself elected as the new elder.
The name is a play on that of journalist Edward R. Murrow, who famously criticized Senator Joseph McCarthy in 1954.
