BBC Motion Gallery - Showreel - CBS News - Flash Player Installation: "Through its international news teams, CBS News has covered events of the last 50 years and is a comprehensive, if not legendary, historic record with over 700,000 hours of content.

Amongst its treasures are more than 400 reels of tape shot in the four days after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy; the Vietnam War; the anti-war movement in the U.S. and the fall of Saigon; the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s; presidential campaigns and political conventions; the U.S. space program, its successes and failures, including the first man to land on the moon and the Challenger explosion; the Oklahoma City bombing; and, more recently, the events of September 11th.

In all, the collection comprises more than two million videotapes and 66 million feet of film, including outtakes and other footage never used in on-air reports."
