One PM Central Standard Time

On November 22nd 1963 the lives of two men of the same age collided with history in the most dramatic way. John Fitzgerald Kennedy was the thirty-fifth President of the United States. Walter Cronkite was anchor of the CBS Evening News. When Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Cronkite wanted to be first with the story. But, he was an experienced wire-service reporter who lived by the maxim 'get it first, but first get it right.' The events of November 22nd were to be the greatest challenge of his career and would make him the Most Trusted Man in America.
