Cronkite has apparently not abided by simple decency and morality, let alone professional integrity, since at least the late 1960's. He may be a wonderful person, a great father, husband, granfather, etc., but he's also a deceptive SOB who has no integrity.

I had always liked him because of his involvement with the space program. What a disappointment to find out what a despicable person he really is. I wonder how many of our soldier's deaths can be attributed to his biased reporting.

I never liked Cronkite, Huntley and Brinkley were much better.

I don't know whether Cronkite is a secret communist, or just another unpatriotic numbskull liberal.

Numbskull liberals believe:

1. Whatever the American Government decides to do in foreign affairs must be wrong.

2) If social programs are failing, we need to spend more money on those programs.

3. We are evolving into a wonderful human race. We just need to exterminate or forcefully reeducate any conservatives who oppose our brave new world.

OK, I get it. The use of facetious language is sometimes lost on those who read literally. The entire content of the article disparages everything about Waltie and his "distinguished" career. The author is clearly saying that the only real contribution Walt made is that his extreme liberal view and agenda gave birth to an inevitable conservative backlash that we are enjoying today.

If you read it again I think you'll see what I mean.

"I don't know whether Cronkite is a secret communist, or just another unpatriotic numbskull liberal."

There's a difference?

With significant help from Dan Rather.

Liberal kooks in general helped to create the conservative alternatives in media. The emotionalism and irrationality of liberals in pushing their ideological agenda earned the wrath of the American public and people grew tired of the same liberal message presented over and over again.
