This is just run-of-the-mill story of the day leading up to the event, the event and the manhunt. Nothing new.
No mention of the umbrella man even though he's in the clips or the man with the walkie talkie next to him merely metres from JFK. No mention of how everyone turns to the grassy nole, or that behind the grassy nole there's a train station carpark that was never secured. No mention that the carcano rifle is different to the one lee holds in the photos. Nothing...
my recommendation is to take your time on youtube. There are some amazing documentaries that dive deep in the story.. unlike this dribble.
Jfk one day in america brings nothing to the table. You might as well watch a more comprehensive show that looks at all facets of that tragic day.

Lies That Have Been Proven As Lies
First, this was created by National Geographic, so it's no surprise that it's highly sanitised. Second, if you are going to have colour footage, let it ALL be in colour - colourise all of it, not just parts.
Whilst the interviews were interesting, it was very clear they had been rehearsed for 6 decades and obvious the people are not telling the whole story.
What Is surprising is that with all the information that was recently redacted, with Jackie Kennedy's own words, with the Laws of Physics, with all the forensic science and even the three different caskets shown in this series NG would still perpetuate the same story from 22NOV63. Also surprisingly they allowed the footage of people talking about the Xd by amazon and Xd by amazon; and the man that said Congress did it. As Jackie Kennedy said to Mrs. Johnson when asked if she wanted to change her clothes "No. Let THEM see what THEY have done.

Had way to many commercials me and my best friends dad enjoyed the archive footage but way to many commercials hence the two out of ten. If it had less commercials than maybe it would have been better looking forward to the history channel take on Former President John F. Kennedy. What else could I say about i had high hopes for it and i mean very high hopes for it. I am huge history buff but this hit a cord that didn't do to well I wish it was less commercials but I get why it had so many cause they need to make money somehow. I wouldn't even recommend to a history scholar that's how bad the commercials ruined the experience for me.
Secret Service Agent Paul Landis appears in this documentary yet there is no retelling by him of what he recently revealed in his book about finding a bullet in the Presidential Limousine at Parkland Hospital and what he placed it on President Kennedy's hospital bed, a secret which he kept for 60 years??
This is just another BS example of the dying Legacy Media perpetuated upon the public that the Patsy LHO was a lunatic and mobster Ruby killed him out of grief...
Prayer Man by Bart Kamp is a new book out recently that's also available on YouTube for comparison along with 60 years of Beyond A Reasonable Doubt of unanswered questions, cover ups and lies. The Lone Gunman is a great podcast as well.
I'm not sure what RFK Jr would be like as a President but at least he would reveal whatever he could about this and his father's assassination.

I was impressed with how this documentary was put together. The interviews with secret service men, journalists and actual hours of footage gave an in depth look at the events of the day that changed America and the political landscape. I appreciate that the feature did not try to push Lee Harvey Oswald as the only shooter as this version is simply not true. Facts and commonsense show he was not a lone gunman who acted alone. But putting that aside, this feature moves away from this and shows the footage, events and reactions of the event. It lives up to its title and description which is to capture the day and events unfolded. I feel we should not get too hung up or fixated on the conspiracy because it was covered up and they want to keep it that way because they got away it. I am skeptical a little with how Jack Ruby was portrayed as someone who loved the Kennedy's and conveniently was able to access the police station which held Oswald. But again it could have been sloppy police work, the day was full of sloppy protection and police work. Too many questions that did not get answered. Overall a well put together feature that captured the shocking events of the day.
