Overheard in Heaven:



Walter Cronkite

“Fifty years ago today, also on Friday, November 22, in Dallas, Texas, President John F. Kennedy Jr. was gunned down by an assassin. We still do not know with certainty that his death happened the way it eventually was explained, leaving this nation with a gaping wound that has never healed. On Friday, November 22, 1963, America’s innocence died, and like JFK, it has never recovered.

"Top that, O'Reilly, you poseur."

Walter Cronkite, who was the first news reporter in the United States to report the death of JFK, though he had no official confirmation, only the word of on-scene reporter Dan Rather.
