Unc' Walt Crankshaft pretty much gave the shaft to the American public during the Viet Nam war.
I can't verify the statistic, but Col. Bui Tin of Gen. Giap's staff stated in a Wall Street Journal interview:
"A: Our losses were staggering and a complete surprise;. Giap later told me that Tet had been a military defeat, though we had gained the planned political advantages when Johnson agreed to negotiate and did not run for re-election. The second and third waves in May and September were, in retrospect, mistakes. Our forces in the South were nearly wiped out by all the fighting in 1968."
"I predict that Couric will be the next Connie Chung."
Yep.
Probably get more audience amongst the oldsters by hiring Blaze Star. For those of you too young to remember Blaze Star, forget it.
Cronkite really was an as**ole.
It's fun to watch the MSM Propaganda Machine flush itself into oblivion. LOL!
". . . The French, they've got it right, don't they?"
Says it all, really."
It surely does.
Yep!!
I think it's great she's helping flushing cBS down the tolet. She's just doing a job that a real American won't do.
I cannot remember the last time I watched her, and I am sure that only an accidental viewing will account for the next time that I do.
Never trust a Liberal with your money or your safety.
I agree with the appraisal that she will take CBS down the toilet in the ratings. But since CBS management has been consistently stupid in what it puts on the air as news, and its ignorance of the needs and wants of its would-be audience, the Couric choice is entirely logical. Foolish and self-destructive, yes -- but logical in CBS terms.
This is, perhaps, the ultimate example of rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
P.S. I have an early primary for Congress in the 11th District of North Carolina, 2 May, less than a month away. Please visit my website in the tagline, and help however you can.

Katie went to CBS??
Katie went to CBS!?!?!?!?!?
Yahooooooo!!!!
I am a victim of living so far out in the boonies that the only station I pick up is NBC and therefore, have had to suffer through too many Today Show episodes.
I especially thought it was funny when Katie wore black with pearls the day after GW won the 2000 election.
Glad to hear that she is on a station I don't get.
I agree completely with your post. Cronkite is the WORST sort of traitor. That lying, self-important bastard should be put against a wall and shot.
"Katie has a plastic look to her face."
I think the word you are looking for is constipated.
Or, Bryant Gumbel?!Anybody remember him anymore? CBS hailed him like second coming of Christ.
Where is he now?
Not true. Cronkite is a hard-core leftist, just like his replacements.
Me neither, but for the record, I believe she's - Perky Katie Couric.
I suppose in a twisted sense of the word, that's correct.
Last I heard of him, he was spouting some racist drivel some months back.
Before that, he was on the Skiffy Channel doing "documentaries"
about UFOs.
