@Dilshad My father felt the Soviets had nothing to do with it. He from day one suspected hardliners in the CIA and military intelligence. He felt this crime was beyond the capability of any one man. He was convinced Lee Oswald was set up when said, “no sir I didn’t shoot anyone, I’m just a patsy.” Only Intelligence operatives say that.

@Dilshad That's a good question.

@Dilshad This wasn’t Soviets. This was mafia.

@@nicholaskloss7198 it was Sr. Bush he was head of the CIA at that time.. and if you watch the in slow motion you can see the passenger ( Secret Service ) is the one who shot Kennedy and if you remember Jacqueline saying .... " That's not my husband ". Well, Kennedy knew ahead of time and they replaced him with a clone or DBL, but Kennedy actually died right after this past election. And to put the icing on this cake, John John is coming back as the 19th VP of the United States and DJ Trump as 19th President of the United States. Do some research on cloning if I'm not mistaken they ( the CIA and our Government ) we're making them in the 50's.. oh yeah 1 other tidbit.. Trump's grandfather worked for/ with Nicolas Tesla. Kennedy/Trump are cousins. Why do you think Trump became President.. Just Saying.. Oh yeah just 1 more thing.. Trump is still our president .. 😳😲🤫🤔🧐 😉😎😂🤣

I saw a story many years ago where people who experienced both the JFK assassination and 9/11 were polled, and a majority said that the JFK assassination was more traumatic. Just wondering if you feel the same?

Not allowing, he was trying not to, just couldn't hold it back.

Arguing violently and ignoring facts is being human too. Your comment is way too simplistic.

@awesomeferret My comment is as it relates to this particular clip. In this clip, Walter Cronkite is not arguing with anyone or ignoring facts. Your response to my comment is irrelevant.

Cronk lied about the war in Vietman

IIn the late-January calm of a Lunar New Year cease-fire, seventy thousand communist troops shattered the celebration, attacking more than a hundred South Vietnamese cities and towns. They struck along the coast, then presumed secure. They shelled the big U.S. complex at Cam Ranh Bay and stormed numerous towns in the central highlands. They attacked the mountain resort of Dalat and invaded thirteen of sixteen provincial capitals in the Mekong Delta. They captured the ancient northern capital of Hue and carried the war into the heart of Saigon-even into the U.S. embassy compound. This was the most daring operation of the war, and Americans watched in horror as the bloody spectacle unfolded on their television screens. They had been told the military situation was in hand, and now those assurances lay shattered in the American consciousness. But Tet had been a desperation move by North Vietnam, beset by a relentless American killing machine. And the Allied response was awesome. The communists lost ten thousand men in the first few days of the offensive, compared to 249 Americans dead and five hundred South Vietnamese. Overall, throughout the months-long battle, the communists lost nearly forty-eight thousand men. The North Vietnamese had sought to deliver the decisive military blow that would knock the Americans out of the region. They failed. They failed so miserably that they lost their ability to wage war in the South. Even a year later, as Richard Nixon assumed the presidency, CIA director Richard Helms told Newsweek columnist Stewart Alsop that the communist main force in Vietnam had been decimated in the 1968 fighting so thoroughly that it would take considerable time for Hanoi to rebuild its forces.

I agree with you. I am old enough to remember this horror. And Walter’s reporting.

There should be a drinking game, taking a shot of whiskey every time Walter the communist removes his glasses.

@@theoriginalsurferbob8461 who asked

@@RH-wj4rz I remember it well as I was in 4 th grade . We were dismissed from school . Once at home we watched TV most of the weekend . We went to a prayer service at church and then Sunday mass . It seemed that the world changed with the death of JFK. Worse yet so many years later the killer or killers were never charged with his death . So many questions with so few answers .

Cronkite was a wicked satanist How dare you praise him He was a total propagandist Look him up he even said He stands with satan…

Changed America for the worse... forever.

Yes it was, I was a new born at the time. " " But just think about it , just how many different stories have been told of how it got to that " " And now with our wants was our commander and chief PRESIDENT. Just wait until they come out with the movie and the series. Just like the monument in New York that onors those who lost their lives or. OR WHAT ? ? ?

Kennedy posed to get rid of CIA and was pressuring organized crime. Two orgs that depended on each other. Boom!

Cronkite was a Satan lover How dare you to call him good He was wicked

I'm still here my child...

@@johnf.kennedy He has risen.

today it is all about Jenna Ortega dancing

@anidiotmakesthings Reading is fundamental. Another failed product of the US public school system.

As someone with "traditional" Journalism training (meaning I went to school for it and can't find a better word for it) and someone who reports on the radio I can say he was truly the epitome. No one will be able to reach his level.

I too was in the 8th grade in Birmingham Alabama when we got the news JFK had been shot, the whole classroom including mrs.johnson was stunned, to see JFK Jr. Salute his father still gets to me this day, a great moment in history

@@tonywaldon7801 My Uncle was 13 years old in Middle School was the assassination took place

He was choking back the tears!

Conkright? Hahaha

Cronkite was an admitted satanist But morons still love him Love Christ… not this wicked satanist, aka uncle Walter..

there is real reporting still, you just have to find it and stay away from the commentary TV networks

Next year will be 60!!

You mean 59 years since the chickens came home to roost

@@wilnerolivier7971 yup

60 this year

I agree, that must of been scary for you. It is sad that we remember the scarier days of our lives. I vividly remember when I was in a school lockdown in 4th grade, we were all scared. I just read a book called space: 1969, it was about if JFK didn’t die, it was really good, I came back to this clip after finishing it.

@@nameredacted6221 September 11 is now part of the forever memories of so many Americans. I'm sure those who were children on that day were very frightened, (plenty of adults sure were,) and those memories will always color their lives.

@@texas2step266 yes

He was so compassionate in reporting the news. I was 15 yrs old and I saw my father crying and say P. Kennedy was great man . And said he stopped a war. God bless the Kennedy family for all they have gone through . Jackie Kennedy was so beautiful and will always remember her courage. And what she said when asked if she wanted a change of clothes. And dear John J at 3yrs saluting his father and wiping away tears from his eyes. God ,it was so sad. I have never forgotten that day and never will.

That’s why he was the best and should be the one reporter every aspiring journalist should model themselves after. Even in this age of the instant internet news in the palm of our hand at the tap of a screen, I still insist it’s better to be right, accurate, and factual than first. Or even second. Notice how Walter never once interjected that Kennedy was dead until he received the official AP Newsflash off the ticker. It was always “this person thinks” or “that person said” and adding we still have no confirmation.

@@joe6096 the phrase I remember was "If Walter said it, it was true"

Cronkite was a satanist But u loved and trusted him Christ said let NO man deceive u You fell for it.. Look it up there is video of Wicked Cronkite saying he was A satanist!

@@former5-0trustjesuschrist57 No comment have a good day🙏

On the 100th Anniversary in 2063,all that they'll be talking about will be the balloons in Macy's parade.

But nobody was listening in the wake of those ominous flickering images in America’s living rooms and the false reporting of men such as Walter Cronkite. America had decided it must extricate itself from Vietnam by extricating itself from Lyndon Johnson. The late Peter Braestrup, Oberdorfer’s Washington Post colleague from those Vietnam days, disagrees in his 1977 book, Big Story. "Rarely," he wrote, "has contemporary crisis-journalism turned out, in retrospect, to have veered so widely from reality." To have such a defeat for the enemy portrayed also as a major defeat for America, he added, "cannot be counted as a triumph for American journalism." It simply isn’t logically consistent.

Indeed

Yup, can confirm!

Not Dan rather tho.

Yeah, the right wing media is creating more Lee Harvey Oswalds everyday.

The first network radio bulletin was at 1:35 P.M. EST (12:35 in Dallas) on ABC. I believe CBS, Mutual, and NBC Radio all had their initial bulletins within three or four minutes. CBS had the first network TV bulletin at 1:40 EST. Thus, your mom may have heard a network radio bulletin, went to your TV, and seized the set, flipping between the networks, and at 1:40 EST may have been tuned into CBS (and the soap opera "As The World Turns") when the network's first TV bulletin aired.

@@altfactor I'm sure that is exactly what happened. We tuned to CBS when the "bulletin" screen was already in place, probably at 1:41 EST (I certainly wasn't watching As The World Turns). I wondered why we could hear Cronkite, but not see him. Incidently, was Jay Watson the first to report the news over the air?

Jay Watson was first to report it on TV, locally on WFAA-TV Dallas/Fort Worth. Some other TV stations may have broken into regular programming before their respective networks aired their first bulletin. As an example, then-NBC affiliate WBZ-TV Boston aired it's first bulletin locally at 1:40 EST, three minutes before NBC-TV's first network bulletin.

@@mandolindleyroadshow706 "I wondered why we could hear Cronkite, but not see him." As I understand it, it was because the cameras of the time had to have time to warm up and show Cronkite in New York talking about what had just transpired (JFK having been shot, and eventually later buying the farm); this is why when Cronkite told people for the first time, all they saw was a CBS News Bulletin title slide, then a commercial, and back to that day's ATWT broadcast. Later, of course, ATWT and everything else were put on hold indefinitely for full wall-to-wall coverage of JFK buying the farm and the aftermath thereto (Cronkite at one point couldn't hold it back having to break it).

I wasn't born until 1983 and I still feel the pain.

Nothing's been right since..awful four days.

I was also 10yrs in the 5th grade also home sick wasn't really sure what I was seeing on TV but my parents were very upset

Nonsense!

Who told him and how did he know 3 shots had been fired?

Or any newsman or woman at that time.

Words that remain, if not increasing in, relevance.

@@elijahvincent985 👍🏽

Extremely relevant these days, fake news and lies widespread by social networks are deciding factors these days sadly

I doubt the ever "just did their job and reported the news."

I agree with you they don't respect the the presidency of office anymore so it's hate if you didn't like a president back then you still respect them because he was your president today it's so different unbelievable

​@@gordonmcmanus1238it has to do with the office holders too... Non US citizen, but in my nation the president also heads the government and is the face of the nation. Once elected, you have to make your administration work for all citizens, not your voters alone. And that's what no president has done in a long time. With this, people feel that there is no one but God and themselves for them. The office lost respect? I agree. But before that, the holders lost the respect for the position they are in

Strange

Oswald did it, lol.

Yup. And the Secret Service agent assigned to stand on the rear bumper of the limo was ordered OFF-to his surprise-seconds before.

@@hallmobility I’m sure that was totally coincidence 😂😂😂😂

That was 30 years before I was born
