Sixtieth Anniversary of the Warren Report

James DiEugenio's On the Sixtieth Anniversary of the Warren Report is available at the Kennedys And King assassination investigation site.  This is an excellent overview of the main points of the Warren Commission Report.  The Warren Report is basically government issued propaganda supported by a compliant media.  Its failings are why the majority of the public doesn’t believe the official story of John Kennedy’s death and started the overall decline of public trust in the government.  As has been seen over the years since 1964 this lack of trust has not been misplaced. 

As DiEugenio explains, 

“Yet, both CBS and NBC broadcast specials on the Warren Report on the day it was issued to the public.  How could anyone have read the 888 pages, digested it, and then put together, respectively, a 2 hour program, and a 1 hour program vouching for the validity of that report?  For that is what happened.  The NBC show was hosted by Frank McGee and supported by Tom Pettit, who was right on the scene when Jack Ruby killed Lee Oswald. The CBS special was hosted by Walter Cronkite, with Dan Rather in support.  Was doing such a thing not a violation of journalistic ethics?  It was the equivalent of taking a government press release and announcing it as factually truthful to tens of millions of people, without any review.”

The Garrison Papers

New Orleans DA Jim Garrison

I am late to the party here.  Former New Orleans DA Jim Garrison’s files were scanned and released as one massive zip file of 180 PDF files uploaded in 2016.  There is a lot to go through here for both researchers and people with an interest in JFK assassination research.  This is truly a deep dive so set your time accordingly.  

The zip file is 1.9 gigs and the unzipped basically the same size.

And I also highly recommend Kennedy and King’s “Creating the Oswald Legend: Appendix” by Vasilios Vazakas.  It’s a long and detailed look at the cast of characters involved in JFK assassination research.

The Doubles Game

 

Did they get the right guy?

The last year of Oswald’s life is marked by a series of events that lead nowhere.  His stint as the chairman (listed under his alias, Alek Hidell) of the Fair Play For Cuba committee does nothing for Castro and he soon gives it up; his trip to Mexico to allegedly get visas to allow him to return to the Soviet Union hits a dead-end as he never files the proper paperwork.  In short, these are all futile attempts to achieve things that have a stated purpose but don’t fit into the general scheme of things, whatever the scheme was.  Perhaps they are all a series of ruses to build the character of Lee Oswald, the loser with delusions of grandeur.
