“ If life were fattening, Walter Cronkite would weigh 500 pounds. ”
Cronkite is not a genius at anything except being straight, honest, and normal.
~ Douglas Brinkley
When he (Walter Cronkite) drank, he had an appetite for both history and political bullshit.
Unlike most fine writers, he wasn't in love with his own words.
Cronkite was always one step short of disillusionment.
