I think he is forever linked to an era of “3 networks and only 3 networks” and this position of “oracle” of network news is now understood to be a function, not of his greatness as a journalist/tv anchorman, but of the paucity of choices in news media back “in the day”. I’m saying his reputation was undeserved - a function of being the first to do something for which there were no standards.
