the coverage of the Tet Offensive
That generation thought Walter Cronkite was an honest grandfatherly figure. In reality, he was extremely biased, and the Tet Offensive caused him to switch from being a propaganda mouthpiece for the government to anti-war.
He never did occupy the middle ground in regards to the Vietnam War, or most of the news he covered.
