Jeff Carter Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Jim, fantastic job! I remember you presenting a multi-part “Reclaiming History” critique on BOR a dozen years ago or so, and as you discussed the new-releases info which effectively cancelled Bugliosi’s talking points, you would often exclaim “someone should do a documentary on this stuff!” Well, it’s finally here and couldn’t have been done any better. While I look forward to the complete version, the two-hour cut assembles a lot of information very effectively. I trust it will reach a wide audience, and particularly promote interest and inspiration to a younger generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But promo would be helpful for exposure to the general public I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jeff, since you and Len did a very fine extended series your approval is really meaningful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James DiEugenio Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) Roe's column shows just how desperate he is. First he runs around with the whole "Todd's initials were on the bullet" like his head is on fire: "Oliver Stone is misleading the world" etc. That turns out to be wrong. He gets a custard pie in the face. Par for the course with him. So he tries to salvage that with some more BS about the CE 399 chain of custody issue. Another slip on a banana peel. Now its this age old issue about the prints on the rifle. Can anyone be so stupid to think there would not be cellophane on the stock area? (Meagher, p. 122) But beyond that, can anyone think that the tape would be ON the print? Latona said there was cellophane on the exterior. But not on the stock. He said that whatever was there on the exterior, was of no value and Brian explains in the film as to why. And he did everything to bring them out. He broke down the whole weapon, but again met with no success. And according to the FBI, print dust was all over the gun. In that condition and the fact the palm print was under the stock, how could that print disappear? BTW, Latona said that the DPD sent pictures of the alleged trigger guard print. But there was no photo of the one under the stock. Can anyone think that Day would not have instructed Drain as to where it was? Which Drain said he did not. (Hurt,p. 109) Day refused to sign a sworn affidavit on this issue. The so called palm print arrived in Washington on the 29th. (Meagher, p. 121) The palm print evidence was so bad Rankin did not even buy it. This is why PBS in 1993 had to come up with their dog and pony show on the Rusty Livingstone trigger guard prints which they said somehow Latona had missed. Which he had not. Pure BS. As exposed by both Pat Speer and Johnny Cairns. This is the kind of junk Parnell promotes. Edited November 17, 2021 by James DiEugenio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) As per Litwin, the guy is today exposed as a neocon clown. In my review of his book, I exposed what he did with Andrews and Weisberg, a stunt that would get him thrown out of any advanced academic program. I also exposed how he actually rewrote a CIA memo to alter its meaning. Which also would have gotten him expelled. Fred Litwin lives in his own solipsistic world. Does not matter to Parnell. You know Tracy, if you just don't give two hoots about what happened to President Kennedy, why don't you just say that? Is your life really that empty that you need to indulge in this kind of nonsense? Edited November 17, 2021 by James DiEugenio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James DiEugenio Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 (edited) The above fiascoes actually hearten me. If this is what they came up with after two hours of 23 witnesses and tons of info, man we passed with flying colors.

Quite the contrary, I was very concerned and that is what led me to study the situation. I just arrived at a different conclusion. There will be more articles coming in the next days and weeks I'm sure. And I'll probably be providing links for those who are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Thorne Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 A powerful moment from the opening montage in the movie. Two men on live TV are listening to an interview with a woman in Dallas. "Where did the shots come from?" "The shots came from the hill." A hand immediately attempts to reach towards the microphone, to take the woman off the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
