Breaking News....Film doesn't show JFK being assassinated!

[Dr.Phool]

Then why the hell is this a story?

They must have run out of Paris, Britney, ANS, and O.J. stories.

Damned liberal media.

1. no, but apparently at the end, it shows someone with another

camera... wouldn't you love to track down that individual to see what, if anything might be seen from their film?

I find it amazing that someone could have had film of that day and it is now making news, though.. WHy wasn't it made available before?

3. My thought exactly, where has this film been all these years?

Confiscated?

4. It was owned by a Man who took hundreds of rolls of film of..

...just "stuff". He really didn't think it was important because it didn't show any of the assassination.
His son casually mentioned it to a Museum Curator (at a dinner) and the rest is history..

8. That's what I turned to my wife and said. Where the f*ck did it COME FROM?

Did someone not notice that the film might be like, a big deal or something?:sarcasm:

[BlueJazz]

2. The way I heard it...it was because of the great quality of the film.

I saw it at noon and it did look like it was taken yesterday.

21. Especially the shots of the Book depository. nt

5. NBC Nightly News will show clips of this film tonight...

in a few minutes actually...I saw a preview and it does indeed look very clear.

6. MSNBC blew a great chance to hype this

SHOCKING NEW VIDEO SHOWS JFK NOT DEAD



Get with the program, guys. :eyes:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

7. What is weird about it to me is how the last frame was of the book depository

and it seemed so out of place. Almost as if it was put in afterwards, to say, hey this is where the only shots were fired.

9. ...

11. they said

that the book depository footage was shot the next day. I don't think there's anything nefarious about this.

[sandnsea]

13. Thank you

I didn't hear anybody say that on MSNBC. Where'd you watch it?

[MonkeyFunk]

14. I've had CNN on all day n/t

[sandnsea]

12. That's been my question too

I can't figure out why nobody else is asking why that footage was shot.

[libnnc]

15. me three.

why shoot footage of the depository BEFORE the assignation? What's so special about the book depository pre-shooting?

[MonkeyFunk]

17. He didn't

the video shown on TV was not plain, unedited footage from the camera. They said he shot the book depository footage AFTER the assassination.

[libnnc]

18. Thank you.

I've been reading all day and haven't paid close attention.

Much appreciated.

[MonkeyFunk]

19. you're welcome

it IS beautiful footage, and just so sad to watch.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

22. I didn't feel it was shot before but after the assassination, but why? As I said

in my earlier post, I felt it was if it was shot deliberately and inserted to uphold the theory of a lone gunman.

[MonkeyFunk]

10. Sorry

it IS a story. Beautiful footage of JFK's last moments, and a beautiful, happy Jackie.

Good god, the way people bitch about ANYTHING on the news that isn't anti-Bush is just nuts.

Of course this footage deserves to be shown. It's not dominating the news - it's been given a few minutes, and well-deserved ones.

[uppityperson]

16. Indeed. It is very sad, watching them happy right then.

I was quite young, but still remember the over-riding sorrow.

[Subdivisions]

20. Actually, I found the new footage to be quite

intriquing...and sad.

It's eerie seeing them happy like that and knowing what will happen to them just 90 seconds later during an event that happened only months before I was born.

[Southsideirish]

23. Like life - none of us knows for sure what will happen in the next few

seconds.
