NEW YORK, July 18 (UPI) -- Today's young U.S. media consumers have a hard time comprehending the sway Walter Cronkite had on the country, CBS News President Sean McManus says.
McManus, in an interview with Saturday's New York Times, said he struggled to describe to his own children an era in which the media was not yet fragmented, and how longtime "CBS Evening News" anchor Cronkite, who died Friday at age 92, dominated the industry.
