The Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza presented an interview with Tracy Rowlett as a Living History education program, connected online via Distance Learning to several schools and senior centers as part of a special Veteran’s Day presentation. Rowlett was an award-winning Dallas/Fort Worth broadcast journalist for more than twenty-five years, working at ABC affiliate WFAA-TV (1974-99) and CBS affiliate KTVT-TV (2000-08). As a broadcaster for Armed Forces Radio and Television in Tripoli, Libya, in 1963, Rowlett broke news of the assassination in that part of the Middle East and continued reporting through President Kennedy’s funeral three days later. The program was moderated by Curator Stephen Fagin.
This presentation took place at the Museum on November 10, 2017.

Stephen is the best thing to happen to the museum. Although remaining neutral from my prospective, he shows professionalism and doesn't try to batter guest with the theory's but enable them to give their own account and recollections. His optimistic approach brings great value in sharing with us the lives and stories from a troubled era. And Rowlett an icon to us locals always appreciated. 👏

Tracy was an excellent newsman. I lived in Ft Worth from 1997-2001 and really appreciated his reporting. He was outstanding.

My childhood was spent watching Tracy and Chip Moody. Let's not forget Troy and recently retired Dale Hansen.

LoL, if you look closer at the photo of the building the first floor has been altered or remodeled at the beginning.

We lived in Libya in '66-'67 like Mr. Rowlett during my dad's Air Force years. We were evacuated in 1967 when the Six-Day War broke out. I have felt for a long time that the Kennedy assassination had an effect on where we were stationed because their was a new Commander in Chief and therefore troop movements would be affected in some way. Maybe we still would have gone to all the same bases later on and met all the people we did, but I think things would have been different in our own military lives had JFK lived.

At 25:39 Oswald is showing his handcuffs. Assuming his right hand is raised to eye level his left hand has a ring on it. Curious....what kind of ring is it? I don't believe that is his wedding ring...if memory serves me..he left his ring behind in the morning.

Do you have a graphic showing the range of the missles we had in Turkey that were aimed at the USSR? They were only giving us a taste of our own medicine

@calliopivogiatzis2235 2 года назад

Wow,Tracy didnt have long hair when he was young. That was atypical in the 60s!

@stevemaher7481 3 года назад

I wonder why the SFM never interviewed Jim Marrs or Mark Lane? They would have been worth listening to.

@Steve Maher: Serious interviewees only, please.

@joeparker282 3 года назад

If lee did what they accused him of,he was clever, and outsmarted the us intelligence.

@charlesmaeger6162 Год назад

Starting at 30.10 he states he thinks Oswald acted alone. The Zappruder film still exists. It clearly shows Kennedy being hit from the right front and moving him back and to the left.

“Reclaiming History” explains this. Cheers.

Well, the most you can say is that about half of Americans got "swept up" in the Kennedy mystique.

A. A crazy man CAN get a rifle and start shootings anywhere at anytime B. The FBI and maybe CIA knew this particular crazy man and covered this up afterwards. C. It’s hard to keep up with all of the crazies out there. This is why we have a 2nd Amendment.

@stddisclaimer8020 9 месяцев назад

@kenanacampora The FBI and CIA had Oswald on their watch list, but only as a oddball Communist (the worst thing to be back then) defector to the Soviet Union, not as a would-be assassin. No one, not even Lee himself could have anticipated what he would do that November of 1963. Any lack of truthfulness on those two agency's part, was to shield themselves from the expected though groundless charge that they did not do enough to prevent the assassination. Using 20/20 hindsight they could have done everything; but in reality, they did all they could have reasonably, practically done.

@stevemaher7481 4 года назад

The denial of the information concerning the truth is hard to listen to.

@corn_pop6082 4 года назад

If you were a minor part of this vast conspiracy you seem to believe existed that included the CIA, the Mafia and I imagine the Pentagon, don't you think you would've cashed in long ago with a tell-all book?
