Pearl Harbor Day; H.V. Kaltenborn on NBC, 3:15pm Eastern, Dec. 7, 1941

H.V. Kaltenborn was one of the pre-eminent news analysts and commentators of his era, if not the most well known. His regular program that aired from 3:15 until 3:30pm Eastern on Sunday afternoons was, naturally, dedicated to the news of the day. This broadcast is interrupted with breaking news — long before the term was used — regarding Japanese attacks, even though the actual attack on Hawaii was ending as this aired.
