Walter Cronkite covered the birth of space exploration, John F. Kennedy's assassination and Watergate.

Nearly six months after Walter Cronkite's death, his voice is leaving the "CBS Evening News." His introduction of anchor Katie Couric was replaced Monday by a voiceover featuring actor Morgan Freeman.

CBS News producer Bernard Birnbaum, who helped shape the public's view of issues ranging from poverty to the Watergate scandal while working alongside Walter Cronkite and Charles Kuralt, has died, the network said.

NBC newsman Brian Williams said Wednesday he's not sure if Walter Cronkite would have succeeded in the age of cable news, blogs and Twitter.

Friends and colleagues of legendary CBS anchorman Walter Cronkite gathered Wednesday in New York's Lincoln Center to remember "the most trusted man in America."

The loss of Walter Cronkite, one of American's greatest newscasters ever, was a great one, and there has been an outpouring of obituaries and tributes since then.

However, as Katie Couric stated in her notebook on Friday, it's important to get the facts right, even while praising someone.

With the passing of Walter Cronkite, who do Americans consider to be the most "trusted newscaster in the country?" Katie Couric?

Brian Williams? Nope, Jon Stewart of The Daily Show.

Now that Walter Cronkite has passed on, who is America's most trusted newscaster?

On last night's Daily Show, Jon Stewart reported on the rash of ass-kissing emails sent to South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford by media outlets.

Who knew Walter Cronkite would be rolling in his grave so soon after entering it?

On last night's Colbert Report, dissatisfied with the media's coverage of Walter Cronkite's death, Stephen honored the legendary anchor the only way a modern-day newsman knows how.
