That's the way it is

Now that Walter Cronkite has passed on, who is America's most trusted newscaster?

Again, it's about the difference between facts and truth, and knowing, on some level, that he's telling the other newscasters to stop hurting America.

I would've included Rachel Maddow in there. Or is Rachel Maddow not considered to be a newscaster, but a commentator?

I'd say that Ms Maddow is definitely in the commentator category. But then, of course, so is Mr Stewart; he just does his commentary in the form of being a fake newscaster.

To wax truly postmodern, of course Stephen Colbert is a commentatator who does his commentary in the form of being a fake commentator.
