Yes. It will be on channel History at 9:00 PM (PT) It's called "Amelia Earhart: The Lost Evidence"

I checked their website. The show will start at 7:00 pm (MT) in Colorado.

I did. I watched the whole show last night. Quite interesting! They claimed U.S. fliers were captured and taken onto a Japanese ship to the island of Saipan, 1,450 miles south of Tokyo, where they were imprisoned on suspicion of being U.S. spies. Spent years or decades held captive in an island of Saipan.

They also claimed that Noonan was executed, while Earhart was left to rot in prison, eventually dying of dysentary. In 1968, they interviewed one of Pacific Islanders and she said Fred Noonan was beheaded by the Japanese soldiers/people.

Pic was a fake

Well, the pic was "real". . . .but published in 1935. Earhart disappeared in 1937. .. .

1) If they interviewed someone in 1968, why are we hearing about it just now?

2) If I were the Japanese, I would've...
2a) ...used an uninhabited island for my prison camps, which means that no civilians would've been present to witness anything.
2b) ...wanted the enemy spies that we capture near by our top counter espionage interrogators with the hope they might eventually be broken, not just rotting away on some remote island.

Good question. I don't know and I learned something new. It was on the show.

This is about as bad as cnn getting trump nominated.
