  • All these people making fun of Kennedy being shot. I hope you get shot. America would be alot better than it is now if Kennedy was never killed. He was going to do great things. So to all you little ignorant and arogant shits out there your mom should have swallowed. Have a nice day.

  • this is truly a tragic event in US history. R.I.P JFK and Walter Cronkite

  • My grandma called my mom to tell her what she heard end when my mom heard J.F.K was dead she dropped the phone!!

  • Cronkite taking off his glasses and avoiding eye contact with the camera is pretty much an on air break-down for the man.

    One of the Country's best anchors grieving the loss of one of its best leaders, tragic poetry.

  • You people should be thanking Kennedy for the cuban missile crisis. If it wasn't for him, we would probably all be speaking Russian.

  • Agreed bro, it's a misfortune of America that Bobby and Jack got shot, or that Abe got shot, but then people like Dubaya got 2 full terms.

  • I once saw an interview where he said the reason he was giving the different time zones was because he was trying hard not to break down crying. I give him creds for such composure. Rest in peace, Mr. Cronkite.

  • @viclariosf EXACTLY! And when Richard Nixon became President in 1968, slowly but surely, he was pulling troops out of Vietnam, the same way that Obama is now slowly pulling troops Iran and Afghanistan. Why we lost in Vietnam was because we were actually fighting two nations who were bigger than us(USSR and China), it was not just the Vietnamese that we were fighting. But Johnson didn't care. If it was legal, as John Wayne would put it "What I'd do to your grave wouldn't pass for Flowers".

  • @Jiltedin2007 is true, Kennedy would not go to war in Vietnam ... but look what happened after: LBJ and RMN embraced the Vietnam war by sending hundreds of thousands of troops, and many of them came home in bags ...
