"Between early wired networks and today’s fiber optics sat a system of microwave relay towers transmitting information from coast to coast across the United States. Built in the early 1950s, this line-of-sight network spanned the continent using zig-zag patterns to avoid signal overlap. It conveyed phone conversations and television signals from the era of the Kennedy assassination through the resignation of Nixon."
https://99percentinvisible.org/article/vintage-skynet-atts-abandoned-long-lines-microwave-tower-network/Facts are facts. You can say the gun didn't pull the trigger and say it didn't therefore kill anyone. That's technically true. However, no gun equals no murder with a gun. No tower equals no hanky panky with ALL THE above stuff.
