It was before my time, but my dad said that he was one of the, if not the best news anchors of all time. After watching some of his archive footage, I have a hard time disagreeing with that. He always came across as very genuine and actually giving a damn about what happens in this country. These days? Eh, not so much.

IMO, ushering in 24-hour news programs resulted in filling a LOT of airtime with opinions and editorials--the more sensational, the more viewership. I love and miss Walter Cronkite, but to be fair, he had a set window in which to deliver the headlines. THAT is what would benefit us all.
@Channel-cm7yc

That’s because leadership in news has changed. In the early days of TV news it cost a station or a network money and you got that news in 15 minutes per day. A lot of people are confusing editorials & commentators with news anchors & reporters who have formal training in journalism and know bias isn’t a good thing. People like Walter were part of standardizing the integral journalistic standards of their era in radio news casting there was no formal training in early television. But no matter what anyone thinks news and news reporting are part of a constitutional right to get news good or bad reported! Communist countries do not have this freedom!

Cronkite was born here in my hometown (St. Joseph, MO). The local University has a specific wing dedicated to him and has all his Emmys displayed (11 of them, he won 12 and one of them has been lost and never found). I remember as a little boy in the '60s my dad pulling up in the driveway from work at a local factory he worked at for 20 years. My mom and him had 7 of us (I was #6) and I was the only child to watch CBS evening news with my dad, my sitting on the couch, him laying down from a hard day's work with his shoes off, feet laid on my thighs and his feet stinking so bad because he wore thin black nylon socks his entire life. He'd be so exhausted that he would always nod off during the news and I didn't want to budge knowing he worked so hard and would only get up from dozing off to work around the house and/or on the cars and/or the yard until very late at night, darn near every night (he had sleep apnea from a throat wound he sustained in WW II that prevented him from sleeping much and he was always awake and working on something since he didn't sleep much (besides smoking his non-filtered Chesterfield cigarettes to keep him going). What I remember most from the news was seeing footage for years of the Vietnam War, which seemed to be the top story almost every night in the '60s on the CBS evening news. As a boy of 5yrs old up until the age of 12, I found watching the footage from that war difficult to understand and take in mentally, almost like it wasn't real to me. Walter's reporting was one-of-a-kind, and he even resembled my old man (who was born and raised in Ukraine).

The difference between now and then could hardly be more stark.

Tom Bradley Rather was exposed and left in disgrace over lies about a sitting president. Leftists do not play fair. They never have.

Danny Rather should have been canned for performance about five years into his tenure. It's a crime they kept him on so long.

Walter Cronkite hated George W. Bush but he denounced Dan Rather for his false news report about him.

Legendary: Cronkite, Huntley, Brinkley, Jennings, and Reynolds. Legend that I concede: Tom Brokaw - I could not stand his pompous voice but that's me. Everyone loves him and he is a legend. Honorable mention: Koppel - yeah he did not anchor the evening news. But he created a new category of late news where his brilliant questions helped bring leaders together and solved world problems. Koppel was pure genius. Next tier: Chancellor wonderful human being but dull on air. Infamous legend, the Nixon of anchors, Dan Rather. He was always a reporter but hardly an anchor.

I'll always remember his reaction to Kennedy's assignation. At that moment, he wasn't a TV presenter, he was just an American telling the nation the news that the president was dead. He really felt the same shock and sadness the rest of the nation did. It was a very poignant moment.

“If I’ve lost Cronkite, I’ve lost Middle America.” President Lyndon Johnson said that about Walter Cronkite. He did the most to end the Vietnam war than anyone else...

The absolute best, too bad we no longer have news anchors that report news "the way it is" instead of TWISTED to fit their party's political agenda.
