I hate to break it to her but broadcast news has never been journalism. It's entertainment. We know now that Cronkite was a big lefty and when ABC / CBS / NBC had monopolies in the nightly news, and only twenty-two minutes to do it in, they were highly selective in what they reported. Oh, maybe they had a lot more credibility back in the day when people like Murrow and Eric Sevareid and Harry Reasoner, who actually were scribes before moving to radio and TV, and made their bones in WW II, were the reporters. But that generation is long gone and the Peter Jennings'es and Brian Williams and ... Katie Couric for gosh sake! ... were not journalists. And it has only gotten worse and worse the last years. Now they are open propaganda outlets for the Dem Party.
David Burge on Twitter: "Journalism is about covering important stories. With a pillow, until they stop moving."
God Bless her for bailing, but it sure took awhile for her to catch on. I guess she needed the job.
Cronkite was arrogant and pompous, but there was a line he wouldn’t cross. The sadness he expressed when Kennedy was assassinated reflected our national grief. Brinkley was a good one as was Frank Reynolds, my personal favorite.
