I am old enough to *just* remember the Cronkite era (maybe three-four years' worth).

It was only in later years that I learned about how he "spun" Vietnam...but I'll put that aside for now.

I agree. The orginal spin-meister. I'll let him rest in peace though and let history judge his approach. Well said.
