I was saddened to hear of Walter Cronkite's death

although, of course, he was 92, so he lived a long, productive life that kept him close to many great personalities over many years. But it was his own personality, his ability to connect with viewers and provide even the most devastating news in a professional manner that was still somehow reassuring, that made him 'the most trusted man in America'. My thoughts are with his family in this difficult time. He touched many lives in a positive way, and that in itself is the best eulogy one can be given.

‘The most trusted man in America’ dies at 92
