“Cronkite didn’t care about the truth. He wasn’t evil, he was indifferent.”
No. Cronkite was evil. That level of indifference to the truth is evil in itself.
But there is more. Chronkite was a committed leftist who wanted the United States to lose in Vietnam, and did everything he could to make that happen.
I'd call that evil - ignoring the truth to push his own interests ... selfish and evil ...
"The guerrilla jihadist must move amongst the people moderate Muslims as a fish swims in the sea."
> demand the indictment of all of them for their treasonous and outrageously unlawful behavior along with their removal from office ... until they are all gone and in chains
Exactly.
This stuff has been known to serious Freepers for years and years. Needs to be emphasized at every opportunity.
fyi

Great article and thank you for posting it!!!
He is why I quit watching network news back in the 60’s. I do not think I have missed anything. I took my local paper until it became too liberal. Do not miss it either.
Indifference is the coldest evil of all.
In the end, Trump cares about the country, and the folks who live here. He sees that our souls are weary of being played for fools by both the establishment clubs called parties. Are we a Democrat or Republican has as much relevance as whether we are a member of an Elk or Moose lodge. To say that there is no difference between indifference and evil, though begs the point. Because what ever happens in the next year, the result may have evil consequences for a century and beyond. Trump is no saint, but he is a representative of America, American exceptionalism, and the possible. We have awaken, and the new reality show is no apprentice effort. It is simply the day to day mechanations of the five networks, and the political class.
Sadly the left forced our side to squander that opportunity.
“....terrified that you, the average American, is going to figure out what underlies all of these institutions in America”
Might that include the belief that currencies are actually worth something or nothing
Go, Trump, GO!!
Damn good rant. Hard to disagree.
It’s not a good article. If a writer can’t get to the point in the first three paragraphs all he/she is doing is padding it in order to get the requisite lines of column.
Yep, but politics being what it is, we have numerous individuals even here on FR just waiting to trash man for anything. He isn't my first choice based on my views, but looking at the general election and stopping Hillary, I have him at the top of the list.
I agree with much of the article but disagree on one point: The idea that trump has what he wants.
A starving person thinks everyone is thinking always about where our next meal is coming from. But we’re not. A poor person thinks everyone is always worrying about where their next dollar will come from, but we’re not. A middle class person thinks the rich are always thinking about how they can make more money. They are not. The rich are past money. They are looking for ways to acquire more power.
Yep. Even Trump. He doesn’t have everything he wants. He doesn’t have the presidency and the power that goes with it. The author in his article has somehow missed that facet of human nature
