There are some historians who believe Cronkite, a widely admired news reporter and anchors, known as "the most trusted man in America," was responsible for President Lyndon B. Johnson's decision not to seek re-election. Cronkite had at first been a supporter of the war in Vietnam, but began having his doubts about the government's insistence that the U.S. was winning. He went to Vietnam on several occasions and the more he investigated, the more he came to believe the government was not being honest with the American people. He did a broadcast in which he suggested that it was time for the United States to negotiate with the North Vietnamese and seek an honorable way to withdraw, as he believed the US could not win this war. For a news anchor with Cronkite's prestige to say such a thing was a blow to Johnson, who had counted on the media's support. He was reported to have said "If I've lost Cronkite, I've lost middle America."
But in addition to his Vietnam reporting, Walter Cronkite had a long and distinguished career as a journalist and as a TV news anchor. He was the one who announced that President Kennedy had been assassinated in 1963; in fact, throughout the 1960s and 1970s, he was there for some of the seminal moments in American news. While every news reporter has both fans and critics, most Americans did in fact trust him and see him as both fair and accurate.

Walter Cronkite was a news reporter and TV journalist. He got his start as a print journalist, covering World War II; but he was best known as the anchor for the CBS-TV Evening News, a role he held from 1962 to 1981. Credible, professional, and capable of handling even the most chaotic scenario with dignity, Cronkite was considered (according to public opinion surveys) the most trusted man in America. I enclose a link to a reliable biographical sketch about his career in news.

If the television news (Huntley Brinkley Reports, Walter Cronkite, etc.) or newspapers or LIFE, TIME, NEWSWEEK magazines used that term during the Vietnam War, most of the American public would not know what they were talking about. Americans knew the enemy as the NVA or the VC (North Vietnamesee Army or Viet Cong). There was little to none in hostilities in SEA (Southeast Asia) prior to the VC.

Public choice theory has had a significant impact on public administration by challenging traditional assumptions about public officials and decision-making processes. It emphasizes that individuals within government are self-interested and pursue their own goals, rather than always acting in the best interest of the public. This has led to a greater focus on accountability, transparency, and the use of economic incentives in public administration to align the interests of public officials with the goals of the public.
