yeah no surprise  always thought this ---a great find !!
One of Richard Hoaglands http://www.enterprisemission.com favorite resume items is his stint as science advisor to Walter Cronkite and the CBS evening news. It turns out that today is Hoagland's birthday and he was on Coast to Coast AM via telephone. http://www.coasttocoastam.com Cronkite called in, of all people. Cronkite first said that he wanted Goerge and all of his listeners to know this, and then he referred to Hoagland's "hocus pocus nonsense", his "babbling about Mars", that he wished he hadn't been led astray by Hoagland, that Hoagland probably qualified for medical treatment under the CBS insurance plan, and he was glad to be away from him. Cronkite alluded to this all being a joke, but IMO it was no joke. He never said one nice thing. I think Cronkite had been waiting for this for a very long time. His work with Cronkite is one of Hoaglands most prized claims.

i found this on youtube hahah

Hoagland has been described by James Oberg of The Space Review, Phil Plait of Badastronomy.com, and Ralph Greenberg, a professor at Washington University, as a conspiracy theorist and fringe pseudoscientist. His book publisher describes him as "...a unique mixture of amateur scientist, genius inventor, scam artist, and performer, blending true, legitimate speculative science with his own extrapolations, ...

Was that Phil Hendrie acting as Cronkite?

James Oberg worked for McDonnell Douglas at the same time as I did. I knew him, but we were just colleagues, not friends.

http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Richard_C._Hoagland

Hoagland began his career as a television expert who literally sat under legendary CBS anchor Walter Cronkite's desk as he added fake voices and sound effects to NASA's early space missions in the 1960s, and allegedly explained to Cronkite the complicated space docking procedure several times at a nearby Houston motel. Despite the pictures taken by Stanley Kubrick of this incident Richard C. Hoagland had been a highly respected NASA consultant until he discovered the truth

He made his claim to fame by becoming an expert in the soviet space program. He used to be a shuttle flight controller.
