~ Walter Cronkite


Ratings and Comments


Mike, Norwalk

There are a few "News Reporters" out there but, it almost takes a scavenger hunt to find them. Cronkite's here referenced "news reporters" would be more accurately referenced as the media's talking heads. The vast majority of the media's talking heads are now certainly left of left. Left of center left the building years ago.;-)

That's exactly right Mike..."left of left". Which is why the call "Constitutionalists Extreme Right Wing Whackos" Everything moral is a long long way right of them. Lunatics!

No kidding, why I'm shocked at this news.

Liberalism wasn't so bad in Cronkite's days -- but we have come a long way, baby. From fighting the Cold War to the loving embrace of national socialism. ...

He should know. He was one of them.

They use to be, but now they have become a vehicle for corporate and MIC propaganda and voice piece for our fascist government...

Patrick Henry, Red Hill

For Mr. Cronkite, an atypically reflective of reality observation.

Regrettably, "Uncle" Walter was a not a journalist but a crypto-propagandist of the retrograde left whose reportorial mis, mal and nonfeasances were legion.

Robert, fascism is rooted in national socialism. The NAZI party were the nationalist socialist party. You can thank FDR for putting the US on the fascist path -- the New Deal was the conversion to a socialist system. Socialist/Communist revolutions result in a permanent 'deep state' of corruption. All you socialists out there ought to remember that millions of people were killed/died transitioning to a totalitarian system -- and that is what socialism is in whatever form, totalitarianism. It matters not the good intentions. Hitler and Mao had good intentions, and many millions loved them.
