KTVT-TV taped coverage of JFK Assassination (Taped coverage of John F. Kennedy's assassination by Dallas independant TV station KTVT, 1963)

Status: Existence unconfirmed

Comment: Not known if any tapes still exist

KTVT-TV covered President John F. Kennedy's assassination extensively, and had up to 5 cameramen on assignment at the same time covering various events relating to the assassination, such as the arrest of a man in Fort Worth suspected to have participated in the shooting.

Unfortunately, the wherabouts of KTVT's aired (and taped) coverage of the assassination of the assassination are unknown. It is possible that the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas has some of KTVT's tapes, as they have the entirety of KRLD's and WFAA's taped coverage of the assassination as well.

The only coverage available to assassination researchers as of now is the so-called "Cooper film" which consists of 16mm film outtakes saved from destruction by KTVT manager Roy Cooper. Only the first 2 reels of this film have been released, and the wherabouts of the subsequent reels are unknown.
