Exactly. Cronkite's coverage of Vietnam was treasonous.

In December 1972, Ronald Reagan called President Richard Nixon after watching Walter Cronkite's coverage of the Vietnam War on "CBS News," telling Nixon that "under World War II circumstances, the network would have been charged with treason."

Vietnam vets are given the chance to see Macnamara and Cronkite go in the same week.

Many vets vowed to piss on their graves; I wonder if they will.
