Ah, yes ... I was seventeen, and working in a warehouse when I heard the news. I thought it was a joke, at first. When the realization set in that it was true, the entire nation was in shock. Walter Cronkite was a giant in his time.

The calm voice of Walter, talking with human sincerity so we believed what he was conveying to us.
After him...where the sincerity in the news went?
