About Dave Moore Newscaster
- David Dalrymple "Dave" Moore (June 4, 1924 – January 28, 1998) was a popular Minnesota television personality and beloved figure in the area from the 1950s through the time of his death.
- Moore hosted the evening news on WCCO channel 4 from 1957 until he retired to a more leisurely schedule in 1991.
- When recounting Moore's life story, journalists never neglect to include the fact that he was only offered the anchor post after Walter Cronkite turned it down.
- Like Cronkite, Moore reported the news like an everyday man off the street—which he contended that he was.
- The string of good fortune that led to Moore becoming influential was sometimes a source of guilt for him.
- His humble nature and commitment to hard journalism is considered a major contributor to the high quality of Twin Cities newscasts through the 1990s.
