Here's a fitting description of Cronkite's legacy, as written in 2006 by Arnaud de Borchgrave

Walter Cronkite was at the top back when media had the respect of most Americans. Sad to say, those days are gone with him...

I don't even like Fox News now - it too has drifted far from its beginnings.

Now, I look only to the net for news - from a select few sources - this place being primary.

“What can I say?”

He knew 12 presidents, starting with Franklin D. Roosevelt, some quite well. He was speechless during the moon landing. Just about covers it, I guess.

RIP, Mr Cronkite. I was raised on your voice and your version of the news. I heard you when Kennedy died, and I’ve watched as you changed over the years.

Despite differences, rip Sir.
