New photos released by federal authorities show Walter Cronkite, the revered former CBS Evening News anchor once dubbed "the most trusted man in America," in a room with Jeffrey Epstein. The images depict Cronkite, then 90 years old and a few years before his death, engaged in conversation with Epstein and an unidentified man. They are seated in a room with refreshments and magazines, in what appears to be a casual setting.
The photos are believed to be from 2007, a year before Epstein pleaded guilty to state charges including the solicitation of a minor. The article explicitly states there is nothing in the photos to suggest Cronkite was aware of Epstein's criminal activities. These images were part of a larger release of documents by the Department of Justice concerning Epstein, which have also featured the names of other public figures.
