"Of the two newspapers which published in Dallas in 1963 only the Times Herald reported the assassination on the same day it happened: November 22. The Morning News, being a morning newspaper, reported the assassination in its November 23 issue." — Timothy Hughes

Two editions of that Nov. 23 Morning News are shown here. Headlines are set inTempoBodoni(probably the Ludlow version). The text is most likely set on a Linotype machine using a typeface from the Legibility Group.
