Cronkite Pik............LOL

I grew up with THE HUNTLEY/BRINKLEY REPORT (if thats any indication of my age). Its sad to see him go.

I used to be a big fan of This Week with David Brinkley; then he started to fade and only did a final monolog at the end of the show; then Sam Donaldson took over and Dave quit; now, we've got Stephanopoulous (?!!!). Oh well, we all know we're going to hell in a handbasket.

Parting thought...........................
Anyone want to take any bets they'll ask Cronkite to eulogize David?

I grew up with the Huntley/Brinkley Report as well. Loved that news program and especially David Brinkley.

I've always felt that Dan Rather tried to emulate him and failed miserably.
