How did I almost miss this one?
A legend among a field brimming with them, Walter Cronkite has passed away. Cronkite was 92 and passed today at his home in New York. I’ll post a few links to some stories on Cronkite’s passing, but I’ll leave you with a quote from his final broadcast.
“Old anchormen, you see, don’t fade away, they just keep coming back for more. And that’s the way it is.”
Walter Leland Cronkite Jr. – November 4, 1916 – July 17, 2009
