I can’t help but remember that when U.S. Forces in Vietnam administered a sound defeat to the NVA in Tet 68, Chronkite came on TV and pronounced our defeat. I wonder if Vo Nguyen Giap ever sent him North Vietnam’s highest award. Wonder who is going to mop up the drool during his remarks.

No, but he did praise him and our MSM for their service to North Vietnam's effots. Giap said something to the effect that the US media accomplished with words what the NVA and VC couldn't accomplish with bullets.
