Interesting Question of the Day – 17 July 2015

Who was the first person to be murdered on television.

Not the first fictional character, the first actual person whose murder was broadcast on television.

The first new player to comment on the website with the correct answer wins a free drink at their next iQ Trivia show.

  1. The first person to come to mind is Lee Harvey Oswald, murdered by Jack Ruby. Although the assassination of JFK was recorded and has been broadcast numerous times, I don’t think it was on live tv-

    1. That’s exactly it.

      Obviously there was a lot of media interest in Oswald, so his every move (including his last) were covered by the media.

      As an aside, his last words were “nobody’s going to shoot me.”
