“Here is a bulletin from CBS News… in Dallas, Texas, three shots were fired at President Kennedy’s motorcade…”
Those ominous words from Walter Cronkite opened an unforgettable chapter in history – the televised story of a presidential assassination, unfolding in real time before a horrified nation.
Relive the four days of CBS News coverage that riveted the country, as it happened. You’ll see Cronkite’s announcement of the president’s death, and the brief public life of suspect Lee Harvey Oswald, from his first “perp walk” to his claims of innocence to his shocking murder in full view of the TV cameras.
Watch – as all America watched -- the slain president lying in state in the Capitol rotunda, his grieving widow, son and daughter, the emotional procession to Arlington Cemetery, the funeral service, and burial alongside a flame that – like our memory of the event – still burns today.
Special Feature: CBS News Extra: November 22 and the Warren Report, Sept 27, 1964
Nearly a year after the assassination, CBS News makes an unprecedented witness-by-witness exploration of the crime. Hear from Oswald’s family and friends, as well as colleagues who heard his rifle firing over their heads. And meet the officer who arrested him in a movie theater – and nearly died at Oswald’s hands. Then Walter Cronkite reveals the conclusions of the blue-ribbon Warren Commission at the instant they’re released to the public, starting with answers to the two key questions: who killed John F. Kennedy? And did the killer act alone?
