This is the formidable team of CBS News reporters and correspondents stationed around the world who track down and present the news each weekday night on the cbs evening
NEWS WITH WALTER CRONKITE.
In aggregate they add up to the most experienced, enterprising and penetrating journalists in broadcasting.
The central figure in this picture isWalter Cronkite, who has repeatedly established that he is one of the ablest and most versatile reporters in journalism. As one critic reported, he cannot be parodied because "he works in such pure, literal, unmannered straight news fashion." A distinguished fellow journalist has said of him "He's a pro. He does his homework." This reputation for integrity and dedication has earned the confidence of world leaders and given him access to exclusive interviews and news-breaking information.
But the news is far too big for one man to handle— or even two. As managing editor, Cronkite starts assembling his material and shaping his nightly news broadcast early in the day, screening thousands of feet of news
film that have come into the news office overnight, conferring with producers, writers and assignment editors and discussing the stories that are expected to "break" throughout the afternoon. He continues to check for any significant developments right up to air-time.
He may call in Stanley Levey, one of the nation's top labor reporters, to analyze a knotty economic issue. He may ask roving correspondent Harry Reasoner to bring his special insight to bear on a major news story. He may ask Eric Sevareid, "broadcasting's foremost essayist," to illuminate a complex social problem, or Marvin Kalb, CBS News Diplomatic Correspondent in Washington, to assess the latest international development.
Monday through Friday on the cbs evening NEWS WITH WALTER CRONKITE you'll
learn more about what has happened, where it happened, how it happened— and most important of all— why it happened— than anywhere else in television.
