I couldn't agree more about MJ vs Cronkite. Maybe it's a generational thing. Maybe it's because Cronkite couldn't dance worth a lick or carry a note in a bag. :) Kerrie – thanks for your comment.

Walter Cronkite just always seemed so darn nice and made us feel he really cared about the country, the world, humanity...and he did. As a former member of the media, it saddens me that the amount of coverage on Walter Cronkite's death has been miniscule compared to Michael Jackson's. I know MJ was a musical icon and everything, and he certainly deserves some extra coverage (journalistically speaking), but it floors me that the media has hardly payed tribute to one of their own. Not just their own, but one of the greatest the industry has ever had. I just don't get it. <em>Kerrie's last blog post..<a href='http://www.sanitydepartment.com/2009/07/more-blogs-to-love.html'>More Blogs to Love</a></em> That’s an excellent story.
