Colleagues Pay Tribute to Cronkite
July 23rd, 2009 Posted in UncategorizedWalter Cronkite’s funeral was today. I’ve been really fascinated and moved as I’ve learned more about his life and amazing accomplishments. The service today — and all who spoke about him — was a testament to the inspiration he has been to ALL journalists, in some way. Mr. Cronkite’s passing is a symbol of the “end of an era” in serious journalism. May he rest in peace, and may journalists of today AND the future remember his life and work, and strive in some way to emulate them.
