#JFK In 1986, Showtime aired a 5 1/2 hour "trial" of Lee Harvey Oswald. The trial used a real Dallas judge, real lawyers (Vincent Bugliosi and Gerry Spence), real Dallas jurors, real witnesses, and what evidence was publicly available.

The jury unanimously found Oswald guilty. 85% of the viewing audience in a telephone poll decided he was not guilty. Go figure.

I was in parochial school. The classrooms had all sorts of #JFK stuff on the walls before the shooting, so needless to say it greatly affected the nuns.

I would have been seven years old. About all I remember:

(1) During lunch hour, one of my classmates running in to say Kennedy had been shot.

(2) My father getting up early on Sunday to watch the funeral procession.

@MidnightRider I'm not going to get into a debate. The overwhelming evidence supports the Warren Commission. No one has any solid evidence to the contrary.

@MidnightRider Which special is that? There are hundreds.

#JFK In 1992, I visited Dealey Plaza, site of the assassination. I walked around the area videotaping the relevant locations.

It left me convinced there was no second shooter on the grassy knoll. The person would have been obvious with no means of escape.

#JFK One of the more interesting videos in my collection is a 30th anniversary reunion in 1993 of reporters who covered the assassination. A lot to learn from them.

#JFK I recently found on Dailymotion the UK version of an #ABCNews 2003 documentary that used 3D-modelling to prove the Warren Commission got it right. 90 minutes but well worth it. (2/2)

A statement from the Defense Department about the ballistic missile launched by Russian at Dnipro.

"The Russians today launched a new kind of missile at Ukraine, what the Defense Department is calling an "intermediate-range ballistic missile," or IRBM, said the deputy Pentagon press secretary."
