CHARLES KURALT SHOULD BE REMEMBERED.
He gave us stories of hope and of unheralded heroes. His more than 600 episodes of "On the Road," filed from every state in America, punctuated the daily barrage of riots, wars and demonstrations on the nightly news. "Two-minute cease-fires," Time magazine called them. We should remember Charles Kuralt for his rich, mahogany voice and slow talking that brought us the relaxed pace of "Sunday Morning with Charles Kuralt." And for his seven best-selling books. So many stories. So many memories.
"I objected to doing the 'On the Road' pieces at first . . . but with the very first piece he did, I was convinced that we better get them on the air."—Walter Cronkite
