Walter Cronkite is gay
no one wants to speak of it in polite company but it's a well known fact in the industry. and he's hopelessly closeted too, but that doesn't stop him from getting absolutely vaporish at some of hollywood's trendiest and gayest watering holes with the likes of andy dick and shepard smith no less.

why o why doesn't this old flamer come out of mothballs? how long do we have to wait for your debutante's ball walter? all we can say is, stay tuned, film at 11 you old anchorman you.

10. and matt drudge was mentioned in the SAME SENTENCE!

21. Laff it up, if * gets in again, if in the closet, you may want to renovate
So you can stay there, secure in your ethics of not calling out the Right-Wing gay with a national audience.

Play nice now.

22. [chuckle] Reminds me of a line from Cronkite's ex-wife
Upon being told that Walter's dream was to retire to a 70 foot sailboat with a 20 year old mistress she quipped "More likely it will be a 20 foot sailboat with a 70 year old mistress"
