John F. Kennedy: Difference between revisions
In the "11/22/63" example, changed "Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking" to "The Last of These Is Not Like the Others". Because becoming part of Canada isn't a bad thing, eh?

Line 71:
* ''The Kennedys'', a 2011 miniseries looking at the Kennedy family's rise to public prominence and their [[Glory Days]] during the 1960s, focuses heavily on JFK. It received a certain amount of controversy because of allegations of historical inaccuracy and [[Accentuate the Negative|highlighting some of the negative aspects of the family]], which was helped by the fact that several of the producers (including [[24|Joel Surnow]]) are outspoken conservatives). Of course, [[Your Mileage May Vary]].
* Kennedy appears in ''The Two Georges'' (which also features his old enemy [[Richard Nixon]] in a [[Richard Nixon the Used Car Salesman|prominent role]]) as a newspaper publisher sympathetic to an extremist 'liberation' movement operating within a North America which, after a peaceful resolution to what would have become the American War of Independence, remains subject to a British hegemony. He tries his legendary charms on the main female character -- who, notably (and apparently rarely) is actually discomforted and repelled by his advances, considering them borderline sexual harassment.
* Stephen King's novel ''[[11/22/63]]'' deals with a man traveling back in time to 1958 to stop the Kennedy assassination. {{spoiler|It ends rather badly. Vietnam ends with Saigon being nuked, India and Pakistan have a limited nuclear exchange. Russia collapses, [[
* 2004's one-season-wonder ''[[Jack & Bobby]]'' -- about two teenaged brothers, one of whom would grow up to become President -- was clearly inspired by the Kennedys (though it was never intended to be a biography, even fictionalized).
