It's possible that she was actually listening to the radio and just recalled incorrectly that it was the television.  It's also possible that she remembered the time-check time incorrectly though.  But Higgins, Markham, Bowley, and Methodist Hospital all corroborate an earlier time.

So... if she was listening to the radio, how did she recall that:

“for some reason the announcer turned and looked at the clock”

She must have had ESP! 🧐

Bowley is most convincing in my opinion. He was picking up his wife from work and then going on vacation. Plenty of reason to pay attention to the time.

Umm, two different formats which typically requires two different announcers.

Why did you repost MY numbers when I asked you to put in YOUR numbers so I could rethink the scenari? Since you couldn't/wouldn't/didn't let me help you out and back the time up 10 mins:

Walt's Timeline
==========
1:06 PM: LHO shoots Officer J.D. Tippit and continues fleeing.
1:12 PM: Police broadcast a description of the suspect in the Tippit murder.
1:30 PM: LHO enters the Texas Theater.
1:40 PM: After a struggle with police, LHO is captured.

Which doesn't change my scenario one iota.

I'm not a mind reader. Either post YOUR timeline or accept that my scenario is the same with your numbers. Make sure to cite your source(s).

ETA: The 1 difference being that the DPD solved the case in just over an hour. That's impressive, especially for Kestone Cops!

Walt's Timeline  Jack's BS time line.....
==========
1:06 PM: LHO shoots Officer J.D. Tippit and continues fleeing.
1:12 PM: Police broadcast a description of the suspect in the Tippit murder.
1:30 PM: LHO enters the Texas Theater.
1:40 PM: After a struggle with police, LHO is captured.

Here's my Time line.....

1:04PM:  Mrs Roberts sees Lee standing on the sidewalk in front of the roominghouse.
1:06PM Mrs Markham sees Tippit shot by an assailant who had his hair cut in an entirely different fashion than Lee Oswald. 
1:08PM Several witnesses saw the killer walking away from the scene while removing ONE SHELL AT A TIME from the revolver.  ( thus the killer was NOT using a Smith & Wesson.)
1:10   TF Bowley arrives at the scene of the murder and sees the cop lying on the street.   Bowley uses Tippit's radio to contact the dispatcher.
1:12PM Lee disembarks from the bus and walks the short distance to the Texas Theater where he enters the theater at about 1;13....

Umm, maybe she heard radio. The 1:06 is pretty precise. Not 1:05. Not 1:07.

Stop calling it my BS timeline you fool. In my original post I was citing the LNers timeline and testing its implications. I never claimed it was correct, I was attempting to debunk it. Comprende?

I just wanted you to modify the times relative to the events I described so we can all be on the same page. Instead you replaced them with your own 8 minute timeline, which you still haven't cited your source(s) for. The most important thing anyone can do here is to establish a timeline by forming a consensus re the time of events from the moment the 1st bullet struck JFK (12:33PM) to LHO's arrest in the theater (1:30PM?). Once we agree on that, then you can call BS all you like....without being obstinate, if possible.

Nevermind. I lost my appetite.
