Cronkite is surely be missed, and so is his opening voiceover. Such dignity Walter brought to the contemporary CBS Evening News.
Uniting two conflicting sides (Sadat and Begin in 1977), experience before joining CBS News, straight news, etc; Couric is working her damndest to bring that Cronkite power to today's TV News (sensationalism, bias, negativity, etc).

Fuck Cronkite he screwed over the Vietnam soldiers ,during the Tet offensive.He was hated in our family with three boys in the service at that time.Burn in hell Cronkite ,your an asshole.
Couric was interviewed by John King ,who was sitting in for Larry King.She was talking about Cronkite,she said ( You know ) at least 30 times.Walter was ,you know, a real ,you know, great, you know guy.And this twit throws stones,what a rookie.Fucking lib cunt,she will pay the price for getting Obama elected.Impeach Obama ,he is the Devil.Couric is a joke .
I have a much higher appreciation and respect for Katie Couric after watching this newscast. Rest in peace Walter and thanks for always sharing the truth. With much respect,...Mark
The Beatles were introduced to American television on the CBS morning show on 22 Nov. '63. The clip was supposed to be rebroadcast by Walter that evening, but it was pre-empted due to the Kennedy assasination. In early Decenber of that year, he felt that the country needed a sort of good-news uplift, so he featured that clip. As soon as the news broadcast was finished, Ed Sullivan called and asked "who are those boys?". The rest is history...
Now, they've got Morgan Freeman opening for Katie Couric, with the James Horner theme to go along with it.
Has television news gone Hollywood?
I love Cronkite's voice-over best!!!!
