Chris Jones on What Happened Aboard Air Force One on November 22, 1963

|

As if on cue, here are 7,700 words from the estimable Chris Jones about what happened, minute by minute, aboard the president’s plane after he was killed. It’s interesting to me that Esquire decided to go early with its JFK coverage. Editors there saw the deluge coming. I argued here at D that we should go the other way, publish our coverage in December. Zig when they’re expecting you to zag. No one would listen to me.
