Vince Palamara Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 (edited) Go to Harold Wesiberg's archive and type in the search engine INSIDE THE ASSASSINATION INDUSTRY: http://jfk.hood.edu/index.shtml?search.html All I can say is "wow" (it is copyrighted 1998 and 2004 and is for personal use only) Use the table of contents and intro to Harold's unpublished book to access the other chapters: http://jfk.hood.edu/Collection/Weisberg%20Subject%20Index%20Files/HW%20Manuscripts/Inside%20the%20Assassination%20Industry/Itai-00.pdf Edited June 6, 2015 by Vince Palamara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Jeffries Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Thanks for sharing this, Vince. Having spent a memorable evening with Harold Weisberg back in the 1980s, I can attest to how crotchety he was, and the low opinion he held of almost all other researchers. I think it's a given that if he were posting on these forums, he'd be banned in due order. I can't figure out how to access the others chapters. Your link allows one to read the Preface, and see the Table of Contents, but I can't find a way to read those chapters. Am I missing something?

Search on the chapter titles to access them. Edited June 7, 2015 by Greg Parker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Parker Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I think it's a given that if he were posting on these forums, he'd be banned in due order. No doubt. But he'd be more than welcome in mine where facts trump style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Jeffries Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Harold Weisberg is still one of my all-time heroes, despite his ornery personality. Thanks for the tip, Greg. I knew I could count on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micah Mileto Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 So this is basically hundreds of pages detailing Weisberg's perspective on the dirty laundry and in-fighting with the research community? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Andrews Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Seen some of it before. In places it's libelous as all get-out, but worth a skim to sharpen one's own skills in avoiding some of the mistakes and hyperbole authored by researchers (many errors HW found are not in the libelous category.) It's also painfully autobiographical, from HW's pre-WW II days as a young reporter to his late sleep apnea. Unless you have an interest in the Harlan County coal mine war, you can pretty much skip chapters 3-15. Weisberg's Garrison recollections and criticisms begin in chapter 16. Chapter 17 has WC-suppressed info on Oswald's security clearances and military intel background. Edited October 4, 2019 by David Andrews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
