In 1976, he began a run to be a U.S. senator from Missouri. On the night of his primary win–August 3, 1976–Litton and his family perished in an airplane accident. From 1974-1976, Litton hosted a popular television show, "Dialogue with Litton," which was broadcast statewide. He invited prominent political guests to speak to audience members about their concerns with government. Twenty-nine guests appeared on the show, including Georgia governor and future U.S. president Jimmy Carter, Missouri senator Thomas Eagleton, and the first African American congresswoman, Shirley Chisholm, of New York.
