A temporary exhibit featuring the connections between President Richard Nixon and Walter Cronkite went up in the Walter Cronkite Memorial in late February, and will be replaced later this month.
Cronkite covered Nixon鈥檚 presidential runs and his landmark trip to China, and he was key in publicizing the Watergate scandal that began in 1972. The display includes CBS Evening News reports, photographs and objects relating to Cronkite鈥檚 reporting, along with loans from Cronkite鈥檚 children and the St. Joseph Music Foundation. Additionally, the Emmy that Cronkite received for his reporting of the scandal is also on display.
