A wholly different time. The network evening news programs were a major part of our personal news mix. There were no 24-hour cable news channels like CNN or MSNBC and no 24-hour propaganda machines like Faux Noiz. There was no Internet or YouTube with its lying Alex Jones style channels.
If you think about it, it's a perfect example of less is more.

I would bet he would be ashamed of the so called news media of today as I am!

john, you have no understanding of the news business (much like your hero, Dumb Dotard) and as such have no right to have any feelings about the media. I, on the other hand, worked for most of my adult life in the media and I can tell you that you're full of shit.
The only media you should be ashamed of is Faux Noiz, Rushbo Limblah, and the other alt-right liars who you probably revere, like Alex Jones, Michael "Savage" Horowitz, The Daily Liar, and Hateway Pundit.

Mr Cronkite was one hell of a man, I had his autobiography, and what a life.. wow. I would imagine he would be utterly ashamed, aappalled, and nauseated by the Faux "news" of today, and how low this once great country has sunk. I, for one, am glad that he is no longer here to witness this.. Too, thank gods my father isnt here to have to witness what has become of the country he offered himself to in order to help keep us free, a member of the Greatest Generation, proud vet. I am becoming ashamed to say I am an American.
