It’s cloying and syrupy and totally out of place in uk News.There’s quite a big difference between somebody of Walter Cronkite’s stature delivering a valediction and an individual such as Victoria Valentine.
For the record, Cronkite’s farewell was reasonably short and to the point, especially when compared to those by Tom Brokaw and Dan Rather.
