Walter Cronkite And The Lunar Landing (CBS News)

at 54 seconds stop this video and you will see Commade James lovell in the middle

Ok, Who is taking the video of Buzz stepping on the moon? They had not invented ROVERs back then, so it wasn't that. And, if you look at the video of the Eagle going back to earth, the camera pans up. Who in hell was controlling that? AND! It couldn't have been a seperate camera, because A) A seperate camera would have been crushed. And B) There was no seperate cameras brought with them. Either, someone or something was on the moon before us, and had camera footage, or this whole thing is fake.

@FlylikeaG6sbirthday

All of those questions you ask have been explained, PATIENTLY, a million times since 1969. Hell they were explained to the public during the news broadcast at the time. For some reason there's always some shitwit who thinks they are seeing something that everyone ON EARTH has missed for 40 years.

Educate yourself your questions are child-like and stupid.

[FlylikeaG6sbirthday]

@Blahblobify I will not post any Insults, nor blasphemies. But it insults me that you don't look into these things. If you can show me something that explains it, I'd be happy to get another piece of my paranoia off my back. I'm not just gonna stick to my guns, because I seek the truth. I am sure you can find something. And, I am willing to discuss this. But, if you still think I am a "shitwit", then i guess you are not.

FAKE Lunar Landings

TOY LEM

Nasa Nazi Fakers

[mrsalmon1984]

@fuckutube74 Words of a genius. Just look at the name and you know what type of person you are.

[fuckutube74]

@mrsalmon1984 yet another Ameerican brainwashed flagfucker

[mrsalmon1984]

@fuckutube74 Obvious troll is obvious. :-)

[FlylikeaG6sbirthday]

@mrsalmon1984 Well, he does have a point. you are Ameerican, from Ameerica. You've probably washed your brain, because you don't like to be dirty. And, you've probably had sex (i.e, flag and fuck are the same words). This man called you a clean, Ameerican horny bastard. Like hugh hefner. Thank him, for making himself so easy to make fun of.

[ieatpeas24]

It never happened America .. it was a game you played with russia and lost

[nesokretep]

@ieatpeas24 -- No. All of the so-called "evidence" that Apollo was a hoax has been positively proven to be fraudulent. Anyone with a high school education in physics can do sufficient calculations to show that the hoax-theory promoters either don't know what they're talking about or else are just blatantly lying.

[MightySaturn5]

@ieatpeas24 Yeah, I remember this woman named "your mother" who lost the game of "Please don't put that metal mailbox in my ass"

[vigo894]

@ieatpeas24= Yeah, and guess what. I saw Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny at a McDonald's this morning. They were giving away magic beans. Tomorrow, I'm climbing the beanstalk, and I'm coming back with Zeus's thunderbolt. Adios.

[fuckutube74]

@vigo894 lol

Santa Claus is more believable than Nasa Disney World

[FlylikeaG6sbirthday]

@vigo894 REALLY!? Dude, meet me there. I know this coffee shop up there, and OH MY GOD! It is the bomb!

[CT2507]

hahaha... that teary-eye-feel-good-music cracked me up! :))

[Paladin1649]

Who gives a rat's A-double-Q about the recollections of the perky Katie Couric?

[brisco42]

Walter you said a lot at that moment without saying a word. He did not have to say a thing because that is how we felt.

[greenorange75]

RIP Walter Cronkite

1916-2009

[seroyer2]

rest in peace Walter.

[masterdeviance1985]

From legends like Edward R Murrow and Walter Cronkite to....Katie Coutic. Is it any wonder journalistic integrity is a joke nowadays?

[kataisa3]

from walter cronkite, a voice of authority, class, professionalism, and integrity....to katie couric, the pip-squeaked voice of unprofessional phony shallow yellow journalism. Shows just how low american news broadcasting has gone. RIP Mr Cronkite, america could use men like you more than ever nowadays.

[19music57]

check out the sarah palin interviews

[robertnorthtown]

did he died?

[seroyer2]

yes

[mdumas43073]

How ironic that Mr. Cronkite should pass away during this, the 40th anniversary of what was arguably the apogee of his career as an anchorman.

R.I.P.

[fbruno01810]

thanks Walter u were a good man

[wjfox2006]

R.I.P.

[TexasBlues2000]

A bit before my time, but thank you for recording history so i could enjoy it.

[ednorton2786]

What a person!!!

[kam75]

thanks for the memories...SALUTE!

[purpleblizz]

rest in peace uncle Cronkite... thanks for the inspiration, GOD Bless You

[PittsAviator]

Mr. Cronkite was , and always will be, the best news person that will ever be. He came from the school of "Report the news and let the people decide". Unlike MOST of the liberal media today which I don't watch or can stand to watch. He was a professional.

[FloridaGin]

I remember this moment so well. Loved Walter Cronkite.

Thanks for the memories, Mr. Cronkite!

And that's the way it is...........

[AVClarke]

Rest in Peace, Mr. Cronkite

[AspenDew]

RIP.

[Greenman727]

Furthermore LBJ made his defensive contractor buddies in Texas a ton of money off of the ammunition sales, as did his fellow Texan and future president George W. Bush -- think Blackwater and Carlisle.

[Cormier6083]

Their will never be reporters like Walter Cronkite; unbiased and professional. Now news leans crookeder than a blade of grass in a hurricane- both left and right.

[xxsanitylostxx]

you suck john k your an idiot whats wrong with you people seriously omg this country is stupid

[tihityhytihi]

at 1:13 it seems that "Neil Armstrong" is translucent. You can see the moon horizon going through him? Strange.

[Dstevenb]

You might want to read up on vidicon type TV tubes before expressing concern about translucent images. That is a common artefact of highly sensitive analogue tubes working in light situations as encountered on the lunar surface . Any tube camera will exhibit the same effect under similar lighting conditions. Try it out for yourself!

[johnk3363]

Cronkite is a lefist member of the Liberal Media. He is responsible for changing American Opinion on the War in Vietnam and called the Tet Offensive and American Defeat when in reality it was a tremendous victory. Walter, you suck!!!

[Lumotaku]

I agree but he was still a master at drama.

[MightySaturn5]

yeah, both you and john are correct however he did do a great job covering the space program....too bad about his biased coverage with regards to politics

[Greenman727]

Oh yes, our invading a country who didn't want us there in the first place and killing hundreds of thousands was a tremendous victory -- How dare Walter Cronkite for expressing his concerns for such a venture. Now who really sucks?

[sierracuban]

Actually the nation of South Vietnam, which is now

extinct, DID want us there to defend them from the

North Vietnamese Army and the Vietcong......

The war was a DISASTER because Red China

was helping the North, and Lyndon B. Johnson

never gave our military the orders to WIN the war......It was fought HALF ASSED, and it cost

the lives of 58,000 brave young Americans.....

And today, NO ONE is telling this asshole

Obama to bring our boys home.....NO ONE !

Asshole Obama can DO NO WRONG......

[Greenman727]

You are inaccurate on a couple of counts: First of all, most of the people in South Vietnam did NOT want US troops to invade and occupy their country, this is a well known fact. Second, LBJ bombed the hell out of Viet Nam -- remember the Tet offensive? With at least 200,000 U.S. troops killed (i think it was more than this actually), I think you can safely say this country gave it a sufficient effort.

[sierracuban]

Greenman727.........I guess that where we would

both agree is that we should have stayed the hell

out of those jungles where we lost 58,000 young

men for NOTHING......I remember watching Walter Cronkite on the CBS Evening News at 7 PM on KNXT ( now KCBS ) Channel 2, Los

Angeles......I turned 15 in 1968 and remember

Mr. Cronkite giving the AWFUL casualty counts during every one of his newscasts.....The news

always started : Direct from our newsroom in

New York, in color, this is the CBS News..

[sierracuban]

OK.......Here is the complete introduction of the

CBS Evening News back in the mid-1960's.....

"""Direct from our newsroom in New York, in color,

this is the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite....and Eric Sevareid in Washington...Dan

Rather in """"..........Etc. etc..........Eric Sevareid was almost always mentioned as the second name.......I was a teen, but I remember it like

yesterday......It seems like yesterday when I watched the moon landing with mom and dad who are now in Heaven......

[cochranexyz]

LOL. As opposed to what? A rightist member of the Conservative Media? LOL.

[Bullettube]

I was there! I remember stopping in at a coffee shop to watch his broadcast. Then when the astronauts had their ticker tape parade I went over on my break to watch. What a happy time!

[rflan42250]

God Bless you Walter! You are a national treasure and a hero!

[nubbie1944]

he sure is better than katie couric.

[juanpidinama]

Cronkite was a honerable good human being and a national treasure.

[flashfast2000]

@juanpidinama A true legend. But he did become a little wacky towards the end.

[NClackum]

Wonderful, thank you.
