PBS American Masters - Walter Cronkite: Witness to History (2006.PDTV.SoS)

Originally aired: 2006.07.16



"Walter Cronkite's award-winning career began as a field reporter during World War II — he hit the sands at Normandy and covered the trials at Nuremberg. During his tenure as anchorman of the CBS Evening News from 1962 until 1981, he became known as "the most trusted man in America." Cronkite covered such historic events as the first trip to the moon; the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr., and Robert F. Kennedy; the Watergate scandal; the Vietnam War (which he deemed unwinnable during an editorial report on the Tet Offensive); the Iran hostage crisis; and John Glenn's return to space. Through it all, he adhered to a credo of fast, accurate, and unbiased news reporting."
