I've gotta say: you're doing a great thing getting all this audio and
video footage online.
When I get a couple of minutes, I'll add your video page to my "Best
of Assassination Web Sites" page.
But help me out a bit here: is there a single entry point for the
entire collection?

The best entry point for the whole collection is this one:

There's also this blog that I've created specifically for the "as it
happened" assassination coverage:

And then there's this additional site I've got for more JFK videos
(it's my "alternative to YouTube" video site; there's lots of good
stuff in here too):

Thanks, .John.

Thanks very much, John.
And if you (or anybody) ever hear about some video or audio material that
is available out there in cyberland that I don't currently have in my
collection, perhaps you can let me know about it. I'm always interested in
adding more items to my JFK collection.
My guess is that there is probably a lot of rare assassination-related
footage locked away in the vaults of radio and TV stations worldwide that
has never been aired since 1963.
For example, all of a sudden (in 2008) 40 hours of 11/22/63 and 11/23/63
audio footage from Cincinnati radio station WLW surfaced on the Internet.
I was like a kid in a candy store.
After seeing a post right here at aaj about the WLW stuff, I was fortunate
to be able to contact the author of that post, who was nice enough to make
available to me all forty hours of the WLW files, which he had put through
an audio booster to increase the quality of the material (making my
current copies on my computer and at YouTube even better-sounding than the
originals).
And if a "find" like that (40 hours worth, mind you!) can pop up out of
the blue 45 years after the assassination, it just makes me wonder what
else might be out there somewhere on the back shelves of radio and
television stations -- like, say, WLS and WGN in Chicago, KDKA in
Pittsburgh, WOR in New York, KGO in San Francisco, and hundreds of other
stations around the country which undoubtedly recorded at least a portion
of their JFK-assassination coverage in November 1963.
Anyway, thanks again, .John.

Not to sound anti-information, but what would radio stations outside
Dallas-Fort Worth, New Orleans, or Washington, D.C. have to offer
other than ripping and reading the wire services?

SOMEONE AT YOUTUBE SAID:
>>> "Dude, you rock! Are you by any chance a curator at the National Archives in Washington? WHERE IN THE LIVING HELL DO YOU GET THIS STUFF??? What a treat! I had no idea this stuff was available. .... It's not the first time David Von Pein has come up with seemingly impossible pieces of history. Geez, David, you got any film looking over Oswald's shoulder that day? Maybe a scratchy sepia toned kinescope of John Wilkes Booth approaching Lincoln at Ford's Theater?" <<<
DVP SAID:
No, I missed out on that historic footage. But I do have a rare film
showing a mysterious figure who looks a lot like JFK's brother
tiptoeing toward Marilyn Monroe's house on the night of August 5,
1962.

I will say that while I am a CT'er, I have been extremely interested in
the media coverage of the JFK assassination, specifically from the time of
the original bulletins. Your work is tremendous and a great historical
record of those events.

wonderful to share this with my sons. I too went into broadcast news. What
I appreciate is how careful everyone was with their information compared
to now.
