He did not, in fact, go to Europe in 1937 to be "CBS chief correspondent there." Rather, he was "Director of Talks." CBS at the time had no news division and at first did not want Murrow to do air work; he was there really to set up broadcasts of world figures, concerts, etc. Murrow began pressing to hire journalists as it became apparent that war was brewing. After being beaten on a major development, an incensed William Paley, founder of CBS, spurred his news executives in New York to establish a "World News Roundup" with Murrow, Shirer and others reporting from major European cities. "CBS World News" eventually became "CBS News." Suggest you re-word your opening paragraph on Murrow. He did not, in fact, go to Europe in 1937 to be "CBS chief correspondent there."
