Of course the connection between JFK and The Beatles has always been strong, whether it's the idea that their coming to America just over 2 months later allowed Americans to start thawing out and healing or if it's that they were announced to America by Mike Wallace...2 hours before the assassination, therein leaving the scoop to be forgotten completely. Of course Walter Cronkite re-aired the report a few weeks later.
But it's also just occurred to me that both JFK and John Lennon were killed with bullets that, were it not for a few inches, could've also killed their wives. Interesting.
