Notice the lack of a "set". Cronkite just seems to have a camera parked in front of his desk! Very different from the "Up to the Minute" set that bookends the piece! And the interview with John Kennedy is far from the thirty second soundbites of today! Also note Dan Rather's report on the "Negroes" in Louisiana. And the Geritol commercial trails off right about "twice the iron in a pound of calf's liver"!
And yes, for you younger viewers, the world was not in color back in those days!
