40. Is there more to WalterCronk "than meets the eye".

I knew Walter Cronkite, and you are no WalterCronk(ite). Your uncited, vague attempt to smear Bill Moyers is the antithesis of Walter Cronkite's reporting. Walter Cronkite dealt in cold hard facts. He was as honorable a reporter as this country has ever known - right up there with Edward R. Murrow! And here you are, having joined DU less than 24 hours ago, posting "I saw a blerb about Bill Moyers a few years back". And this from someone who joined DU 45 minutes before posting this smear?

Pray, do enlighten us all with facts which are documented. How much funding, what years, what special deals, what rights and royalties. And how do on earth does someone "fund or own rights and royalties which they shouldn't own?" That's pure garble-garble.
