QUESTION about network news in the SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES

[Race Realist]

I'm a late boomer. I recall Walter Cronkite, and tom brokaw, and dan rather.

But I wasn't a conservative till about age 40.

We're those guys as WOKE as the shitbirds we have now?

Did deep swamp globo homo svhlomo still determine what got said?

Walter Cronkite was considered the most trusted reporter. Dan Rather was known for drama and bordered on lies. Huntley - Brinkley on NBC was also trusted. I think back then, they were worried about libel. They just covered the stories and I felt they were not biased, it was conservative, just the facts. No they were not woke. They just told it like it was. I vaguely remember Ed Murrow being a good reporter. Back then, no social media or internet for that matter.. So your fast current news came from TV and radio. The newspapers had the details, but they were days behind the stories. Some newspapers use to print morning editions and evening editions. Newspapers were also the way to sell you stuff, in the classified ads. Also were you looked for jobs. The sunday editions were huge, they had movie and record reviews.

By some, Cronkite was considered a "closet socialist". The all pretty much spewed forth what they were told to report, as it is now, but much less "woke" BS or radical lying, and more "real news".

It was still Operation Mockingbird selected narratives but society wasn't as corrupted as it is now. They weren't pushing the woke PC garbage so much.

I concur with the above. They were not as openly leftist, but they were very biased and liberal all the same. Just more subtle about it.
