The greatest journalist to ever live. He broke the news of President John F. Kennedy's assassination and death. He exposed the American people to the reality of the war in Vietnam. He also was a staunch supporter of NASA and the exploration of space. Men like Walter Cronkite are the standard of what a journalist should be.
The following is a famous quote from Walter Cronkite after John F. Kennedy's funeral on November 25th, 1963.
"It is said that the human mind has a greater capacity for remembering the pleasant than the unpleasant. But today was a day that will live in memory and in grief. Only history can write the importance of this day: Were these dark days the harbingers of even blacker ones to come, or like the black before the dawn shall they lead to some still as yet indiscernible sunrise of understanding among men, that violent words, no matter what their origin or motivation, can lead only to violent deeds? This is the larger question that will be answered, in part, in the manner that a shaken civilization seeks the answers to the immediate question: Who, and most importantly what, was Lee Harvey Oswald? The world’s doubts must be put to rest. Tonight there will be few Americans who will go to bed without carrying with them the sense that somehow they have failed. If in the search of our conscience we find a new dedication to the American concepts that brook no political, sectional, religious or racial divisions, then maybe it may yet be possible to say that John Fitzgerald Kennedy did not die in vain. That’s the way it is, Monday, November 25, 1963. This is Walter Cronkite, good night."

The special needs cousin of Rush Limbaugh who says things that would land anyone else in the looney bin. He was dumped by Fox News in 2011 for being too crazy, even by Fox News's standards.
Of course, I believe the whole mental insanity thing is just an act and that he's a con-artist just like Rush Limbaugh.
After being dumped by Fox News and curling up into a ball and weeping like a baby, he took his talents to the internet to bring his patented brand of apocalyptic race-baiting directly to the fans. His fans now pay $9.95 a month to hear Glenn. Cheaper than a case of their favorite wine.
That $9.95 really added up. Last year, Glenn made $80 Million. Tying him with Elton John for 8th on Forbes List of Highest Paid Celebrities.
*Slightly off-topic*
Elton John also sang at the wedding of someone else on the list, Rush Limbaugh. Who lives in a house Elton John would call "too gay."
Of course, Glenn Beck does support same-sex marriage so he's not totally evil.

A lie that, no matter how many times it's disproven, NEVER FUCKING DIES!!!
Madam Lindsey is the man who replaced Strom Thurmond in the Senate. He's also got a thick Southern accent. He's every Southern stereotype rolled into one Damsel in Distress. Watch any of his interviews or Senate floor speeches and you'll see just what I'm saying. Seeing him and John McCain together is like watching The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.

In 2009, Republicans were calling Obama a Muslim when, just a year earlier, they were saying that he was too close to his wacko Christian minister. Seven years later, this Zombie Lie has risen from the dead. Other Zombie Lies include "Tax cuts pay for themselves" or "Saddam Hussein had WMD's."
