No it certainly did not give any hint of Cronkite's left wing, anti-American bias. In the parts that I viewed, negative views (i.e. the real truth) was completely omitted. The piece was only a series of congratulatory statements and interviews of Cronkite's achievements (i.e. "saying it like it was" by the "most trusted man in America.")

It was clearly a blatant propaganda piece of leftist drivel. And, I indeed paid for part of it.

OK, I get it. The use of facetious language is sometimes lost on those who read literally. The entire content of the article disparages everything about Waltie and his "distinguished" career. The author is clearly saying that the only real contribution Walt made is that his extreme liberal view and agenda gave birth to an inevitable conservative backlash that we are enjoying today.

If you read it again I think you'll see what I mean.
