Walter Cronkite was a newsman’s newsman. He became the most trusted man in America by being a pure reporter. From landing in a glider with the 101st Airborne behind enemy lines in Europe to being on the ground in Vietnam during the Tet Offensive, he reported unfiltered what he saw. His subtle enthusiasm as the United States began to explore space pulled us all in. America relied on his word. Walter Cronkite personified what journalism was… and should be again. Join us as we look at his life, times and the news he faithfully covered... "and that's the way it is."
