shouldn't he be more concerned about his bowel movements and "regularity" rather than the war?

The 86-year-old said the proliferation of cable news channels has advantages, but has harmed CBS, ABC and NBC.

What does he mean - "but"?

Yes, it's far better to continue to debate about Iraq and oil prices and do nothing about the rape rooms, the torture, the 2 million murdered, the prospect of an even worse 30 years after Saddam from his stunningly sadistic son, the invasions of peaceful neighbors, etc.

What a shame that such a historical icon has turned out to be such a doddering old fool.

We should change his name to Half-Crocked instead of Cronkite.

Cronkite and company were the reason I stopped watching CBS and any other news after returning from Vietnam. He was a crock then and still is.

To Walter: Cheering crowds in Baghdad make you look small and silly. Crawl back onto your boat and sail away with Willy Boy.

who cares what some old, anachronistic, senile, self-admitted liberal has to say. Go back to the depends and the shuffleboard you silly geezer and leave running the world to the big boys.

Pompous old windbag used to sign the air with “and that’s the way it is” as if he was the source of all truth.

Now if that ain’t arrogant, then I don’t know what is.

Cronkite joined CBS in 1950 as a reporter, and became anchorman ...in 1963. ...He retired in 1981.

Yeah, but when did the brain die?

Dwindling viewership has led to budget cuts in news departments

Maybe viewership is dwindling because Americans don't believe Bush is arrogant and don't believe the US security should be dictated by the arrogant French.

Well ain't that the pot calling the kettle black. Cronkite is one of the most arrogant human beings of all time.

Walter, ask the Iraqi citizens how "arrogant" Dubya is. Then take a good, long look in a mirror to see the epitome of arrogance.

He is worse than a liberal. He is an internationalist who believes in compromising American sovereignty for the pipe-dream of "world government."
