Ahhh yes. Yet another great milestone in Fake News history.

Ol’ Uncle Walter was a treacherous old Rat.

I wonder who wrote the check that changed his reporting? How big a check was necessary to purchase Cronkite? Or was it pictures of Cronkite with dead hookers or naked children?

“First and simplest, the Viet Cong suffered a military defeat,” he reported. “Its missions proved suicidal. If they had intended to stay in the cities as a negotiating point, they failed at that. The Vietnamese army reacted better than even its most ardent supporters had anticipated. There were no defections from its rank, as the Viet Cong apparently had expected. And the people did not rise to support the Viet Cong, as they were also believed to have expected.”

So did the deep state get to CBS and Cronkite and bury the reality report!

(Uncle Walter Goes) Waltzing With Bears

Well my uncle Walter goes waltzing with bears;
It’s a most unbearable state of affairs.
Every Saturday night he creeps down the back stairs;
Slips out of the house and goes waltzing with bears.

Chorus:
He goes wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa- waltzing with bears,
Raggy bears, baggy bears, shaggy bears too.
And there’s nothin’ on earth uncle Walter won’t do
So he can go waltzing - wa- wa- wa- waltzing,
So he can go waltzing, go waltzing with bears.

I went to his room in the middle of the night,
I tiptoed inside and I turned on the light;
But to my dismay he was nowhere in sight,
‘Cause my uncle Walter goes waltzing at night.

Chorus:

Well I bought uncle Walter a new coat to wear,
But whwen he comes in it’s all covered with hair.
And lately I’ve noticed a couple new tears;
‘Cause my uncle Walter goes walting with bears.

Chorus:

Well we said “Uncle Walter why won’t you be good”
And do all the things that we say that you should?
We know that you’d rather be out in the wood,
But we’re afraid that we’ll lose you, we’ll lose you for good.

So we begged and we pleaded: “Oh please won’t you stay”
And we managed to keep him at home for one day;
But the bears all barged in and they took him away.
Now he’s dancing with pandas, we don’t understand it;
The bears all demand at least one dance a day.

Chorus:

Well my Aunt Matilda is mad as can be,
‘cause she says that “Walter won’t go waltzing with me.”
So she took her fur coat and remodeled it so that
She could go walting and Walter won’t know.

Chorus:

(Assuming that bears refer to Soviets and “uncle”Walter’s fondness for them)

Proof that Fake News has been around for a long time created by and utilized by RAT Liberals. How many did this fake news get killed and wounded thanks to media and politicians in DC?

Walter Cronkite was always willing to sell the United States out to Communists.

He spent two years in Moscow after WWII.

Good thing he didn’t report during the Battle of the Bulge.

Just more proof what a Communist Walter Cronkite was!

The media has always been an enemy of the people.

It's no surprise that his surname is homonymous with the German word for "sickness" — Kamerad Krankheit helped usher in decades of Leftist Infection of the MSM…

Walter Cronkite was not a newsman. He was focused on the general temperment of the people that he viewed as the popular sentiment at the time, and he reported the news that way. That is why he turned his reporting on the Vietnam war against the United States. Cronkite was a weasel. He was a leader in what is wrong with the news in this country today. I remember sitting with a friend and watching his very first newscast for a half an hour and saying to my friend that we were in real trouble. Listening to Cronkite trying to fill a half an hour with less than a half an hour of news was going to cause huge problems. It has and it is today.

By March '68 the cultural elite had turned against the Vietnam war - it had gone from being the noble crusade of Saint JFK, that handsome, brilliant, heartthrob of the best and brightest to the disastrous folly of the repulsive, obnoxious, crude Texas clown LBJ - Cronkite had to get on board with his cocktail set cronies......

A couple of years earlier in 1965 the high school I had attended held a retirement party for one of its long-time English teachers - before coming to our school she had taught at another where one of her students had been James Michener, author of "Tales of the South Pacific", basis for the Broadway show - on the same night as the retirement party Michener had been scheduled to attend a soiree at the White House honoring him and other artists of the time - proclaiming the great debt he owed his old high school teacher for how she had contributed to his success, he stood up LBJ and instead attended the retirement party amid glowing press reports about the inspired way he had sacrificed to honor his teacher in spite of the status of the president he had ignored - I wonder still if he would have been quite so noble had JFK still been in the White House that evening.....
