About Today’s Final Jeopardy – Thursday, 30 November 2023
Formed in 1963, the Warren Commission, officially named The President’s Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy, was set up by President Lyndon B. Johnson a week following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on November 29, 1963. Its mandate was to conduct a detailed inquiry into the circumstances of Kennedy’s assassination.
In September 1964, the Commission presented its extensive 888-page report, which asserted that Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole individual responsible for assassinating President Kennedy, and that nightclub owner Jack Ruby, who killed Oswald shortly thereafter, acted on his own. The report aimed to establish a definitive narrative of the events and address the numerous conspiracy theories circulating at the time.
However, the Warren Commission’s conclusions were met with considerable doubt and criticism. Skeptics challenged the Commission’s investigative process and highlighted what they saw as inconsistencies and oversights in its findings. This led to the proliferation of various alternate theories implicating different entities and groups, ranging from organized crime syndicates to governmental agencies, in the assassination.
Persistent public doubt and new emerging evidence prompted the formation of the United States House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1976. This committee reassessed both Kennedy’s and Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassinations. In its 1979 report, while the committee concurred with the Warren Commission on Oswald’s role, it posited the likelihood of a second shooter, albeit without identifying any additional assailants or establishing the full scope of the supposed conspiracy.

Watch all the videos from today’s Jeopardy episode below, including highlights, behind the scenes outtakes and full episodes.
Final Jeopardy is the final round of the popular American television game show Jeopardy!, in which participants test their knowledge in numerous areas by answering questions. In Final Jeopardy, participants are given a single clue and must wager a percentage of their existing earnings based on their confidence in their ability to successfully respond.
Each contestant surreptitiously writes down their wager during the commercial break. The Final Jeopardy clue is presented when the programme resumes, and participants have 30 seconds to write down their solution in the form of a question (e.g., “What is…?”). When the timer runs out, the host, reveals each contestant’s response and wager in ascending order of their pre-Final Jeopardy scores. The scores of contestants are adjusted based on whether their response is correct or incorrect, as well as the amount wagered. At the end of the round, the contestant with the highest score is proclaimed the winner.
