A Retro-News Channel

History has a tendency to be re-written, so why not experience it as it was originally reported?
As Walter Cronkite used to say, "And that's the way it is."... or shall I say "was".
Newscasts have one thing in common, they're only aired once. After all, they're supposed to be as current as possible, so who would want to hear about yesterday's news? Probably nobody, but if you fast forward a few years, and those newscasts are now called "History", or Primary Source History to be more precise.
A Retro-News Channel would be different from a traditional news channel in that it would present history as it actually unfolded.
To me, being able to re-live the space race of the 1960s, leading up to Walter Cronkite's emotional account of landing on the moon is not only more interesting than watching a condensed version in a documentary, and far more interesting than watching today's news.
