Walter Cronkite, the iconic journalist who saw America through the Vietnam War, the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Bobby Kennedy and man's landing on the moon has died at 92.

Cronkite died, according to his family, after battling illness for several month.

Known for his catch-phrase at the end of the CBS Evening News broadcasts, "And that's the way it is", Cronkite was called “the most-trusted man in America."
