I still consider Walter Cronkite to the the biggest reason for our failure in Vietnam. Cronkite was a liar, and a communist, and a traitor ... and he had plenty of company at ABCNBCCBS.

IIRC the Swiftboat Vets revealed that Jean F’ing Kerry spent four months in country & then DEROSd by Navy regs using three iffy Purple Heart awards.
I thought you did your year in RVN unless KIA, wounded, or court martialed. It’s what I did anyway.
Would like to see this new movie. Nothing truthful out of Hollywood yet.

Sold down the river by lies and deceit by leftist liberals and the major networks. It's the same old story, isn't it. And it has been going on since 1953.
It's a wonder we even still have a country left. But maybe they can fix that soon, too.

Commie Cronkite was the reason that America soured on the war, and the reason young Americans started hating the military.
But, we lost that war because after Nixon ended it, with a ceasefire agreement, the Democrat Congress basically DENIED our allies of any of the assistance and support which Nixon promised in the ceasefire. Once North Vietnam realized that America wasn’t going to actually support and defend our “ally,” they swooped in and raped, killed, maimed, and murdered - AT WILL!

The turnout and the gross for that first showing don't sound all that impressive. I hope it does better, and lasts long enough to show locally. It's long past time someone told the truth about the war.
I've ordered the book.

Jean Jaques Servan-Schreiber nailed it. We won on the battlefield but were outflanked in the media, thanks to Kronkite and others, and on our college campuses. There Ho Chi Minh outflanked LBJ.
