<<< Thank god for the internet. I've gone through the past 25 years thinking that I was the only one in America who didn't trust ol' Walt. Almost gave me a complex. Thanks for making me feel almost normal again.>>>

I don't disparage Mr. Cronkite too much. The reason he was able to build such an awesome reputation was because of hard work and a complete lack of competition for the most part. TV anchors never had to beg for audience as they do today. There was no significant cable deals nor affordable satellite dishes. There were 3 channels and plenty of viewers. Nonetheless, he is no longer a news anchorman per se and we can be hosted to his political views which are as many have said quite liberal. However, I don't think this completely discolored his commentary as can be seen by his covering of the '68 Dem' Convention. But even if it did I always say if you don't have the goods you won't be caught with them.
