Was he related to Walter?
And does that explain why so many people think that it is what it is? Because, in the end "that's the way it is".

Yeah, I changed it to Walter, thanks.
Maybe this illustrates the problem. Of course I knew it was Walter, I can't explain "Charles"
And that's the way it is.

I just discovered that he had a colleague - Charles Kuralt - which is somewhat slightly assonant, so maybe that explains the curious case of Kuralt and Cronkite?

when beer is replaced by eggnog
