Ep:46 Political Truth: The Media and the Assassination
Author Joseph McBride discusses the role played by the American mainstream media in propping up the official conclusions and denigrating the critics. Did these vaunted organizations simply blow the story, or have they served as witting collaborators and accessories in the cover-up?

SuperxSoldier, Once again, thanks for keeping us up-to-date on the series. This is a watershed moment in JFK research... the 50th. Episodes 45 and 46 pay good attention to how the mainstream media has spent the last 50 years numbing us from the reality.... like a good dentist would do before pulling a tooth out.
I have a lot of thoughts on how the media has handled JFK, just let me rant!!!: We can readily expect that the national networks and major newspapers will aim to avoid sparking any new controversy. There will be a lot of network coverage of Tom "Apollo 13" Hanks new movie, "Parkland". Surely, this massive work in progress, 50 Reasons for 50 years, will be ignored by the mainstream media.
However, the general TV public is getting much closer to understanding the reality of what happened in Dallas. TV gave us Larry Hagman in 'Dallas' which sub-consciously educated the general public in that Texas should be identified with oil fortunes and business conspiracies.
Tv also gave us the Watergate hearings and the general public was, once again, sub-consciously educated in that Washington DC is full of crooks and the good guys who catch the crooks.... and that conspiracies really do exist. TV also gave us Iranian Hostage count. Every day. Day after day.
Tv has brought us the X-files and now Jesse Ventura's big hit show Conspiracy Theory. I wonder if the media has been trying slowly to open our minds to the reality of conspiracies? More likely, Tv has been slowly trying to kill our ambition to do anything about it.
I could go on with the TV shows but this is really what happened with JFK over 50 years: the media has gotten so lazy they simply replay the tapes, repeat the same lies (Oswald's real past) narrated by a deep-voiced, off-screen, ever present narrator, telling Warren Commission fairy tales.
I think the Warren Commission, Ford, understood history and how to make it, they wrote history and for 50 years it has been vehemently attacked. Ford understood that once the 26-volumes were issued it would be written like stone.
The only thing that can move the Warren Commission report out of history is another report that has more credibility, and that means the report has to be ordered by the President of the United States or maybe an adventurous D.A. like Garrison was.
Richard Belzer, you may know who he is, en.wikipedia.org... has a recent book out that reached the #1 in the New York Times with his book "Hit List: An In-Depth Investigation into the Mysterious Deaths of Witnesses to the JFK Assassination"
As Belzer himself pointed out in a book club talk at the National Press club, the NYT wouldn't review his book but it was #1 on the NYT best sellers list. THAT SAYS A LOT!

I agree with you about the media's handling of one only JFK's but the other assassinations of the 60's as well.They act like the WC is the last word on the subject when we have the HSCA and the other investigations from the 70's.

Ep 48:The Medical Evidence and the ARRB Doug Horne served as the Chief Analyst for Military Records on the Assassination Records Review Board, created by the JFK Records Act in 1992. Charged with overseeing the release of records related to the assassination, the ARRB also sought to clarify conflicting evidence in the medical records. Doug Horne worked closely in this regard, and here he describes what was discovered.

Would you be surprised to know that he's regurgitating history? Back in the early 1970's the original JFK buffs (see Mae Brussell, Penn Jones Jr, etc) had already compiled the lists of dead witnesses/suspicious deaths of witnesses. The info Belzer is presenting is 40 years old! I like him, he's likeable, he makes a good spokesman for JFK truth, he is also an actor.
When you get his book can you look to see if he credits either Mae Brussell or Penn Jones Jr.?

Ep49: Journalist Jefferson Morley describes his efforts to uncover documents related to the Kennedy assassination which remain hidden from the public, despite the clear intent of the JFK Records Act. The CIA still holds over 1100 documents, military intelligence agencies still hold records, and there are even Warren Commission documents still under wraps. As Morley's story shows, this information could yet add new insights and should be released. JFK Facts
