The entire CBS Evening News Broadcast was recorded through the audio loop! A little bit about the mission, mostly over-dramatizing issues caused by the last minute crew switch, as well as joking about Swigert's unpaid taxes. It really illustrates how little media attention this mission received before the explosion- More time is spent talking about the Vietnam War, Sea Otter Conservation, and even plant-based meat substitutes than is spent on Apollo 13!
