If you're my age, you don't need this link to explain this photo. Walter Cronkite was an amazing guy. He was, obviously, a media star. The thing to keep in mind is, however, that he was never, unlike a few that most of us could name, a media whore. He was, if not the last, certainly near the end of the line of television news people who actually told the truth. At least, as close to the truth as he could get. It's hard to believe, now, but we tended to believe Mr. Cronkite when he spoke. Television news, these days, is up to and beyond its neck in bullshit, and believing what's said on the news is indicative of severe brain damage. Especially if you're watching the news as presented by a network named after a small, carnivorous mammal with a white-tipped tail. I've been missing Uncle Walter since the day he retired. Now it's permanent.
