Mort Sahl -- The Noncomeding Comedian
Mort Sahl San Francisco Chronicle, November 9, 1967 Hat Tip: Bill Roe. Money Quote : Mr. Sahl isn't the last guy who will shore up a sagging career on Mr. Kennedy's bones. Messrs. Lane and Garrison are not the last who will try to make big men out of small men through the same squalid device. Sad. Here is the column on Mort Sahl that McCabe references : Money Quote : There are other press people Sahl takes exception to. "The ones in the press who ridicule the conspiracy theor

Elmer Gertz on Jack Ruby
Elmer Gertz Here is a link to the Wills/Demaris book on Jack Ruby : You can read the Wills/Demaris excerpt on Nancy Perrin Rich here. An important excerpt: All of this tragedy might have been averted had Ruby yielded to his impulse to leave Dallas immediately after the death of Kennedy. He was persuaded by the family that he ought to remain in Dallas to take care of his sister Eva Grant, still recovering from surgery. This, incidentally, disposes of the theory that he was sel

Gaeton Fonzi's Notes from a Discussion with Jim Garrison
Here are Gaeton Fonzi's notes from a discussion with Jim Garrison on June 28, 1976: The paragraph on Bill Turner is incredible. Garrison claims he was "deep cover." When Garrison tells Fonzi that "he even persuaded me to charge somebody and helped a guy who penetrated the office build up a totally false picture ..." he's talking about Bill Boxley who worked with Turner to finger Edgar Eugene Bradley as a conspirator in the JFK assassination. Garrison brings up Red Bird Ai

James DiEugenio's Factoids about Howard Brennan
Hat Tip: Bill Brown was responsible for much of the research in this post. James DiEugenio has written a four-part essay about ABC's documentary, "Truth and Lies: Who Killed JFK?", on his website . A large part of his first part is about Howard Brennan, the eyewitness who saw Oswald fire from the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository.

Oliver Stone's Ruth Paine
Hat Tip: Joe Alesi. In 2019, Stephen Fagin, the Curator of the Sixth Floor Museum, conducted an oral history interview with Gail Cronauer, the actor who played Janet Williams, aka Ruth Paine, in Oliver Stone's JFK . Here is an excerpt from a transcript: (38:00) Gail Cronauer : Now there was a very definite point of view that Stone had about it, which affected what we did, all right. So do it this way. So there's a little TV interview that's being formed. So it's this way. So

Oliver Stone Throws a Hissy Fit
The recent ABC special, "Truth and Lies: Who Killed JFK?", has made Oliver Stone go over the bend. The recent ABC News Special "Truth and Lies: Who Killed JFK?" went to great pains to convince me to appear (along with Jim DiEugenio, who I insisted would join me on the air for "protection purposes," as I made the mistake of giving an interview to Peter Jennings in 2003 that was essentially cut to pieces). I figured this time they'd behave better. DiEugenio was on "for protecti

Did Knott Laboratory Disprove the Single-Bullet Theory?
Jefferson Morley believes that a recent ABC documentary on the JFK assassination used an outdated animation of the single-bullet theory. Perhaps the biggest journalistic fail was the extraordinary reliance on Myers as a primary source. ABC News failed to report that Myers’ 20-year-old video animation of the Dealey Plaza shooting is a technological anachronism rendered defunct by contemporary photogrammetry.

Clash of the Cults
My annual visit to Dallas for the commemoration of the JFK assassination was a mixed bag. It was great to see all of my JFK friends, but Dealey Plaza was, once again, a complete travesty as two cults vied for prominence. The first stop on the trip was to a service road near Midlothian Texas where there is a marker for Lee Bowers, who died in a car crash in 1966. Bowers worked in the Union Terminal Company's two-story interlocking tower behind the parking lot next to the Texas
