I don't really agree with Cronkite here about Arnett's supposed "impropriety." If we are going to look at proper conduct by journalists, Cronkite should look at what he did when he basically said the government was lying about Vietnam. One could argue Hanoi Walt, though not "speaking with the enemy," was giving "aid and comfort" by editorializing.

No matter. This is a tempest in a teapot and pretty goddamned laughable in the light of clearly biased b.s. from cable news networks as well as some crap from the broadcast networks.
