>>But...just 25 seconds, especially on a slow news day, for
the man who arguably did more than anyone to ensure that there even IS
such a thing as the "CBS Evening News"? Good heavens...<<

Not to worry.  The 25-second piece was only the intro.  The full story
ran three minutes, and contained part of an interview with Stanton from
1993, explaining what happened at CBS-NY after the Murrow piece on
McCarthy was aired.
