Walter Cronkite is seriously ill and not expected to recover.
Not everyone who reads this blog was alive, or aware, when Walter Cronkite was the anchor for the CBS Evening News. Not everyone belonged to a family that watched CBS (mine tended to go for the Huntley/Brinkley report on NBC). But trust me: when they say that Walter Cronkite was the most trusted man in America, believe them. He was calm, steady, and a consummate professional, and we have not seen his like in thirty years.
He will be greatly missed.
