SECRETS OF THE DEAD: “JFK: ONE PM CENTRAL STANDARD TIME”
November 13, 2013  | By David Bianculli

PBS, 10:00 p.m. ET

 

This one-hour special focuses almost exclusively on how CBS News – with a nod to the UPI wire service – covered the tragic events in Dallas 50 years ago this month. Plenty of documentaries already exist in which CBS anchor Walter Cronkite provided his own account, including the multi-part Cronkite Remembers, but this one fleshes out the day with a clear, compelling timeline, back in the day when even competitive network news organizations labored to confirm news before reporting it. For a full review, see Eric Gould’s Cold Light Reader. Check local listings.
