Frothy morning shows long ago became the more important anchoring real estate, garnering more revenue and subsidizing the news division. One anchor exerted moral authority once and that was Walter Cronkite, because he risked his career to go on TV and tell the truth about the fact that we were losing the Vietnam War.
This cannot be allowed to stand. We weren't losing the war until Uncle Walt took the Tet Offensive for a 'spin'.

Nobody is even mentioning how Dan Rather once claimed he was a US Marine.
I don’t get it.

At one time there were actually journalists working on tv. Then they became celebrities. Walter Frogbite among them.

I know why! He had a liaison with John F'in Kerry!
Seared, I say, seared in his memory!

Oh my God! This celebrated, cosetted, privileged, keyboard pusher is shamefully ignorant of the proper use of the English language. In the fourth paragraph, she writes
When Williams was declared the [sic] hair apparent to Tom Brokaw....
Hair Apparent??HAIR APPARENT??
It's heir apparent you dumb horse's rear end.
But of course she relies on her computer's spell checker to catch any such mistakes, notorious for failing to catch spellings in which a homonym throws in a monkey's wrench into her reputation as that of no being an ignoramus.

I agree with you. The worship of Uncle Walter Cronkite is pathological.
To: EveningStar
How’s that? What does she attain by spelling it as Hair Apparent?

Let me guess... You and most other Media folks already knew about this problem but decided to stay quiet...right?
So, does that make all of you complacent in this deception?
I say YES!
