THIS Is A REAL News Team!
With election night just weeks away, take a look at the CBS team covering the 1964 election. The race was between Johnson and Goldwater and at the Broadcast Center, CBS was ready. L-R, Harry Reasoner, Roger Mudd, Eric Severeid, Mike Wallace, Robert Trout and Walter Cronkite. Unfortunately, they don’t make ’em like they used to!
Ladies, they though it was a man’s world.
Those were the days that they reported the news and didn’t report their biased opinions!
Roger Mudd still alive at 84.
I’m reading Cronkite’s biography (called “Cronkite”) right now. Fascinating story of the birth of CBS News… highly recommended.
Probably the strongest broadcast news and analysis team ever.
That’s for sure. We now have ‘television journalists’ who tout the corporate line.
