Oliver Stone's Nixon

[Pat Speer]

I admit that my view of Nixon and Watergate has largely been influenced by Oliver Stone's film, Nixon. Since Richard Helms, in his memoirs, suggested that the Garrison investigation and Stone's film JFK were KGB-influenced, I'm wondering what Ashton Gray's thoughts are on Stone's film, Nixon. After all, in Nixon, Stone makes no bones that the Watergate break-in and other "White House horrors" derived from Nixon's own character flaws. Was this CIA disinformation, Ashton? If so, was Stone's film JFK and Helms' subsequent comments part of a plot designed to cover-up their close working relationship?
