The reference was to the homonyms Cronkhite (the subject of this article) and the dead, Bolshevik newscaster Walter Cronkite who would always close out his propaganda ‘newscasts’ with ‘...and that the way it is ...’

The last name of the man in the article is Cronkhite.

The sign off I posted was from the famous CBS journalist, Walter Cronkite. He signed off the CBS Evening News on television with that departing salutation for ... oh, 20+ years, I suppose.
