...and I expect to see more from the writers. SOMEONE has got to step up and make up for all the television reporters who, literally, phoned it in last night. I mean, I know it was a Friday news story, but one news dignitary couldn't leave his posh digs to show up in studio and pay tribute in person? I saw no one of note showing up to discuss this great man. Television news should be ashamed.

maybe they, like i, don't think walter cronkite was such a great man.

But Rush...now there's a real newsman.....duh, [pardon me, I drooled a little].

Especially after the three days of national mourning for Tim Russert. Nice man, but really no where close to Cronkite's class.
