Now THAT was nicely said. My favorite part was where the writer talks about how within one news cycle, bloggers (FReepers, actually!) analyzed the phony Bush Air National Guard papers proffered by Dan Rather and "reduced the most powerful newsman to a disgraced hack." But I also liked the last sentence, because it's about celebrating the RIGHT thing: "While the US rightly mourns Cronkite's passing, the rest of us should celebrate the passing of his era in media."

“Now THAT was nicely said.”
I had the same thought.
Too bad more people won’t be reading it. The MSM still has a tight grip on the news many people receive. Nor do we own the internet. Talk radio is pretty much ours, thank goodness.
