It was a misplaced trust to begin with.We can see that today, but at the time there was no alternate media. There were a few conservative magazines, but nothing that had mass exposure or influence.
Walter Cronkite defined our reality, and that's the way it was.

I think the most trusted thing was originaly put out by CBS itself. It may have stuck somewhat but it reminds of how CNN bills itself today. Self promoting idiots is how I would characterize them.

And it was all CBC hype anyway. What on earth is trustworthy about being able to read?
