I am always interested in new DVD's about the Kennedy Assasination. I saw this one at Costco this week and snapped it up.

The footage used was good, but it didn't add anything to my knowledge. It is mostly based on CBS news scooping everyone else on the day of the assasination and how that came about. It is a long, dragged out pat on the back from Walter Cronkite and CBS news.

One thing though is that after Walter Cronkite, I quit believing network news guys. It seems like all the modern ones have an agenda of some sort they are trying to sell.

the focus on right wing stuff in Dallas when the killer (if it is Oswald as this DVD asserts) was a left wing guy. How one has anything to do with the other and creating an "atmosphere" for what happened makes no sense to me.

watch something completely different.

I think there is a lot better stuff out there than this. Even the movie "Parkland" was a lot more informative. Skip this one, if you are at Costco.
