I remember that broadcast when LBJ died very well

Cronkite's recollection of November 22nd is totally wrong. He was NOT on the air for five hours before Collingwood relieved him. He was relieved about 15 minutes after he announced the president's death and did not come back on for another 90 minutes...at around 3:50 PM. He stayed on until about 5:00 EST when he was relieved by Harry Reasoner...who stayed on until 6:30 when Cronkite then anchored the evening news. He was not in shirt sleeves all afternoon as he recalls.
