War Of The Worlds Doc On PBS

Not to be a pest with this all these viewer/listener alerts, but Channel 17 is rerunning an American Experience special on the Orson Wells radio classic "War of the Worlds." It airs Tuesday night at 8 PM on WNED. It was originally shown in 2009 and if memory serves, was pretty good. It deals mostly with the fallout from the famous 1938 broadcast and the aftermath about what it meant for radio, in what was then a still young industry. 

Because it was made six years ago, you don't necessarily have to wait to see it on TV. The entire show is permanently available online here
