    Chuck, you know the deal......if it's not increasing their ratings, it's not news worthy. Some things are worth mentioning but in TV land it's all about the ratings, not whats important. Sad but true....:(

    Voodoo is right. I was nine years old when it happened and remember it like it was yesterday. I can even remember the class I was in and the teacher's name when it came over the PA system. But it will always be remebered by those of us that care.

    I was in Dallas a couple of years ago to interview for a job. My hotel was about six blocks from Dealy Plaza. I walked to Dealy Plaza and sat on the Grassy Knoll closed my eyes and tried to imagine what all those that were there on that fateful day experienced. Whether you agreed with JFK's policies or not, it is to this day, one of the sadess days in American History.

    They had some coverage here in MA but I'm pretty sure it was about that lack of coverage. Like said about it's not interesting enough.

    The sad part is that we the people will never know who killed JFK. Nice to know that we have such an open form of government that represents the wishes of the majority.
