I don't remember now just which one of those rags it was that had a story in it with some claim about how much money he was making at the time. Well looking back it seems almost bizarre but when they asked him if he was really making as much money as the rag in question claimed he said he, his family and the IRS wished that that's the way it is but unfortunately that's not the way it is! He actually used his own broadcast trademark to answer the question! Isn't that a hoot?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943321092483498805.post-85656984063500742382009-07-17T23:44:16.076-04:002009-07-17T23:44:16.076-04:00A hugh giant of a man has gone home today.A hugh giant of a man has gone home today.Mike Golchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472496241893921107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3943321092483498805.post-20245446726489047492009-07-17T23:03:56.188-04:002009-07-17T23:03:56.188-04:00It's so ironic that Walter Cronkite passed alm...It's so ironic that Walter Cronkite passed almost exactly 40 years after the first moon landing. He was such a huge fan of NASA and the space program. His death 40 years and one day after that momentous day brings back so many memories, not only of the space program but of all the other huge stories he covered. We'll miss you, Walter -- there will never be another like you.<br /><br />I hope CBS keeps his audio introduction of Katie Couric and the CBS Evening News as long as she's there.emery_rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870661804526939428noreply@blogger.com
