Maybe the hacks that call themselves anchors and reporters today could learn how to report the news from him. I don't remember him ever openly rooting for a political person and/or party. That came after he left the news booth which is the way it should be. The All Barack Channel (ABC), NBC, and CBS should be ashamed on how partisan their reporting has become.

Oh, and as if the ultra-conservatives don't do it as well? If you are going to criticize on principle, at least have the integrity to criticize both sides equally. Otherwise, you are nothing more than a partisan hack with a double standard.

I grew up listening to Mr.Cronkite and had great respect for the man.I feel that if there is anyone that should be honored with any greater honors that can be achieved, it should be Walter Cronkite. May he have much rest and peace. May the Good Lord in Heaven greet Mr. Cronkite with open arms and a great reward.
