Master of the Lost Journalistic Arts Reportedly Recovering

According to Walter Cronkite's spokesperson, he's recuperating from a recent sickness and not as gravely ill as some media outlets have reported. That's good news. People don't have to pass on in order for the rest of us to celebrate how awesome they were.

In this brief clip from 1963, Cronkite sat down with President Kennedy to discuss the only hot war the U.S. was engaged in, somewhere called Vietnam.
