CBS's JFK Assassination Coverage As it Happened

At You Tube, there is an amazing, several-part video of the November 22, 1963 broadcast of the CBS soap opera "As the World Turns" -- which was interrupted by Walter Cronkite's famous bulletin reporting the assassination attempt on the life of President John F. Kennedy. This video is unedited -- containing the commercials, network ID breaks and bulletins as they happened -- and continuing with CBS's live studio coverage of the day's horrific event, including Cronkite's emotional announcement that the President had succumbed to his wounds.
