Few minutes after noon, on November 22nd, 1963, the then-president of United States of America, Pres. John F. Kennedy, was shot in the back whilst in a car along with his wife Jacqueline, and three other personnel. After the eventual assassination by assailant Lee Harvey Oswald, media coverage from around United States reported about the incident.


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.
