Shades of LBJ’s Cronkite Nightmare: Biden Loses CBS

| May 26, 2023 | Shane Harris
In a stunning reversal from their prior blackout of the story, CBS News released an exclusive interview this week with an IRS whistleblower who is alleging that the Department of Justice intentionally stymied an investigation into potential tax law violations by Hunter Biden. The moment recalls memories of another famous incident of
CBS suddenly turning on a Democrat president, when anchor Walter Cronkite broke with Lyndon B. Johnson’s stance on the Vietnam War, an incident that reportedly caused Johnson to remark, “If I’ve lost Cronkite, I’ve lost America.” That watershed moment came on February 27, 1968, in the midst of...

Walter Cronkite Was ‘most Trusted Man In America’ On CBS Nightly News, But In Reality He Advocated For A One World Government Under Antichrist

Now The End Begins ^
| 1/10/21 | Geoffrey Grider
As a kid growing up, I would watch as my parents watched Walter Cronkite on CBS Evening News, and listen to his calm, steady and measured cadence when reading the news. Cronkite
was a welcomed and reassuring figure during times of war, presidential assassinations and other crisis. They called him the ‘most trusted man in America’, but there’s more to that story. Walter Cronkite was also a One World Government globalist who desired to be under the yoke of the United Nations and…well, in his own words when he said, “join me, I’m glad to sit here at the right...

Cancel Culture Comes to Cronkite

| 12 Sep 2020 | Brian Anderson
The spread of “cancel culture” in newsrooms — declaring people henceforth “canceled” from society owing to ideological disagreements — is nothing new. Look
no further than the hysterical reaction to Senator Tom Cotton’s New York Times op-ed urging government to use its authorities under the Insurrection Act to “restore order to our streets” amid riots and looting. Newsroom activists flooded Twitter, objecting to its publication. The opinion editor was forced out. And the Times attached a note at the top of the op-ed (nearly 40 percent as long as the piece itself) apologizing for daring to publish the opinion of...

This was truly one of the most surreal days of my life. From
delivering newspapers out of my astrovan to interviewing the leader of the free world at the White House. What a long, strange trip it's been. I don't care what your politics are this was an opportunity that couldn't be turned on. I still can't believe it happened to be honest.

Scarborough's Odd Fantasy: Trump Brought Down by a Fox News 'Cronkite Moment'
|
| |
NewsBusters ^
| Mark Finkelstein
Joe Scarborough turns his lonely eyes... to Fox News?? Looks that way. On
today's Morning Joe, Scarborough dreamed of a scenario in which Fox News would turn against President Trump, thus bringing down his presidency. Scarborough analogized it to a "Cronkite moment." That was the time in 1968 when CBS News anchorman Walter Cronkite essentially declared the Vietnam War unwinnable. LBJ was reported to have said at the time, “if I’ve lost Cronkite, I’ve lost Middle America.” Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

One-world-government Walter Cronkite: ‘I’m glad to sit at the right hand of Satan’
|
| |
Fellowship of the Minds ^
| Sept. 17, 2018 | Dr. Eowyn
In 1999 at the UN, Walter Cronkite declared his support and allegiance to a one-world government. He
blamed the refusal of the U.S. Congress to ratify one-world-government treaties on “a handful” of obdurate senators who “pander” to the Christian Coalition and the “religious right wing”. Identifying Pat Robertson as the leader of the Christian Coalition, Cronkite quoted Robertson, that “any attempt to achieve world order before that time must be the work of the Devil.” Cronkite then mocked Robertson by declaring, “I’m glad to sit here at the right hand of Satan.”

The Terrible Truth About Walter Cronkite

| July 20, 2009 | Cliff Kincaid
It is wrong to speak ill of the dead. On
the other hand, it is an insult to the intelligence of the American people to pretend that Walter Cronkite was the “voice of God” and “universally credible,” as Mara Liasson put it on Fox News Sunday. The terrible truth is that Walter Cronkite symbolized liberal media bias and used that bias with disastrous consequences for our nation and the world. His latest cause was world government and the destruction of American sovereignty.

".....To say that we are closer to victory today is to believe in the face of the evidence, the optimists who have been wrong in the past. To
suggest that we are on the edge of defeat is to yield to unreasonable pessimism. To say that we are mired in stalemate seems the only realistic if unsatifactory conclusion. On the off chance that military and political analysts are right, in the next few months we must test the enemy's intentions, in case this is indeeed his last big gasp before negotiations.

'Lost' Cronkite broadcast reveals 180-degree war flip

| January 14, 2018 | WND Staff
But buried in the dusty archives of CBS News was another Cronkite report from Saigon broadcast days earlier – nearly two weeks earlier to be exact. The
“lost” Feb. 13 clip, shows Cronkite had a much different and unambiguous view of the recent Tet battlefront immediately after it was over. “First and simplest, the Viet Cong suffered a military defeat,” he reported. “Its missions proved suicidal. If they had intended to stay in the cities as a negotiating point, they failed at that. The Vietnamese army reacted better than even its most ardent supporters had anticipated. There were no defections...

Arizona State University is revoking an award bestowed on journalist Charlie Rose, who was fired this week by CBS News and PBS in the wake of sexual misconduct allegations from multiple women. […] Rose was given the Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence in Journalism in 2015. Dean
Christopher Callahan said in a statement that the actions reported about Rose were too “egregious” to ignore. He says Rose’s actions victimized young women who were not unlike the students attending Cronkite. …

‘Lie after lie after lie’: Fox News’ Shepard Smith has a Cronkite moment on Russia

The Washington Compost ^
| 7/14/2017 | Aaron Blake
Between its “Fox and Friends” morning show and Sean Hannity at night, Fox News has become a haven for those who think this whole Russia thing is nonsense. On
Friday morning, Steve Doocy even declared that “the Russia story is starting to fall apart.” But on Friday afternoon, a Fox host went off on the Trump administration's handling of Russia in a way we've rarely seen. Shepard Smith is no stranger to challenging the administration and occasionally launching into personal editorials — including one about refugees back in 2015. But on Friday afternoon, he took it a step further, repeatedly...

VANITY Google Pining for the Days of Walter Cronkite?

Seems Google is paying homage to the "great" Walter Cronkite's birthday. Father
of the mainstream liberal media. Must be pining for the days before the internet and alternate media exposed the press for what they were; completely in the tank for dems as they are right down to today.

A Stamp for Disgraced Newsman Cronkite?
|

aim.org ^
| October 28, 2015 | Cliff Kincaid
Before Dan Rather disgraced himself as the anchor of the CBS Evening News, there was Walter Cronkite, who paved the way for a communist takeover of South Vietnam and openly despised and attacked President Ronald Reagan’s peace-through-strength policies. Cronkite,
who became an advocate of world government and a stooge of Soviet propaganda operations, is now the subject of a campaign to put his likeness on an official U.S. postage stamp. The terrible truth about Walter Cronkite, as we noted in 2009 after his passing, is that he “symbolized liberal media bias and used that bias with disastrous consequences for our...

And That’s the Way It Was: In 1972, Cronkite Warned of ‘New Ice Age’

The “brutal” winter is on the attack again, bringing sleet and heavy snow to the mid-Atlantic region. Previous
storms targeted the deep south including Dallas, Texas, and several hammered New England. By March 4, Boston was just 2 inches away from hitting an all-time record for snow, Boston.com reported. It’s a reality more in keeping with media warnings from the 1970s than today’s arguments about global warming. NBC Nightly News reported Feb. 23, that Dallas was paralyzed “after an entire season’s worth of sleet and freezing rain, up to two inches, fell in a single day” causing massive traffic problems....
