TIL that, Steve Sohmer, ex-husband of Deidre Hall, was in charge of marketing at CBS during the Dallas period.  According to the NY Times, he coined the iconic phrase, 'Who Shot JR' for use in commercials and print ads.  Which is ironic because they never say the line during the episode, it is just connected in our collective memories because of all the promotion.
