Cronkitey 

Term for one who is a student at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communications at Arizona State University. A Cronkitey person thinks they are going to be the next Barbra Walters or Walter Cronkite because they go to school in Downtown Phoenix vs. Tempe. They believe they are better than everyone else and don't see the truth that they are just journalism students at Arizona State.
Did you see Cody downtown? He was walking around with all of cameras and stuff talking about his new job. He was being so Cronkitey.

Marissa was all dressed up talking about her internship that she got because of her AMAZING reel. Cronkitey to the max.

Dressing up and talking up your not-so-jourslistic skills. #Cronkitey

Walter Cronkite

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."

sloppy cronkite 

From The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (1/29/07):

Two or more people try to get each other off, and the first one to climax says: "And that's the way it was."

We were both trying to steal home, when she suddenly screamed "and that's the way it was" and left me hanging! What did I do to deserve a sloppy cronkite?

walter crunkite 

A state of mind that is much crazier, drunker and sloppier than the already widely used crunk. Based on famous newscaster Walter Cronkite, if you have had so much to drink or smoke that you have achieved the level of Walter Crunkite, you should probably slow down.
"Man, everybody is pretty crunk at this party, but that one kid is absolutely Walter Crunkite."

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
