Another sad loss. He was also the voice of Spaceship Earth at Epcot.

I heard this on the Internet yesterday. It is a sad loss, but at least he lived a long life.

R.I.P., Walter.

Pardon my ignorance, but he was a news anchor right? For some reason I relate the name to the news.

I'm not an American and I'm too young to have seen him on tv presenting the news, but when I see the video of him on YouTube where he's announcing president Kennedy's death, I get goosebumps all over me. I follow American news on a daily basis and I wish tere were people like Cronkite working in journalism nowadays. The anchors and 'journalists' nowadays are pathetic.
