There were some liberties with the death of Dorothy Hunt. There's no proof she was on the plane to talk with the CBS reporter. She allegedly had cash, (some was found in the wreckage) but the story was (nobody has disproved it) she was taking the cash to relatives in Chicago for investment purposes. (Not an unusual tactic in the 1970's carrying cash on a plane) And legend says there was a CIA hit man on the plane -- the menacing guy eyeing Dorothy -- no real proof. And, the JFK mentions...far-fetched. That said, the comedic nature of the event is well played.

The ultimate sin of a modern newscast. Boring. The POTUS interview, the last straw. Milktoast, vanilla interviewing. Even Fox News gets tough with POTUS now and then. If you like stories about a Shooting at a Bass Pro Shop in Mississippi, this is the newsblock for you.

Even if you don't like the backstory that's created for the character. it's just a gorgeous period presentation of 1930's California. And now, 6 episodes in, I think this show is terrific.
