Paul Hoch wrote to William Manchester about his interview with Dr. George Burkley: Paul Hoch received this reply: Any suspicions about conspiracy that Dr. Burkley may have had, years later, were not connected to the medical evidence. Unfortunately, Manchester's interviews will not be released until 2067. Don't miss my multi-part series on Dr. George Burkley. Paul Bleau Chokes, Part 10 Chokeholds' section on Dr. Burkley is misleading. A Letter from Bill Baxley about Oliver Sto

This post is the 1,000th since I started this blog at the end of September 2020. My initial plan was to post articles and reviews related to my book On the Trail of Delusion.

This time Fox News joined in the craze - Tucker Carlson's irresponsible reporting that an unnamed source told him that the CIA was behind the assassination, takes the cake. Conspiracy theorists are convinced that important files are being withheld in full. Jefferson Morley wants the CIA to release the George Joannides personnel

It's consistent with what Garrison told journalists like Hugh Aynesworth, James Phelan, Jack Anderson, Merriman Smith, and Art Kevin.

In 1982, Jim Garrison sent the first five chapters of his new book on the JFK assassination, The Execution , to McGraw-Hill. He wanted to launch it in November 1983 to commemorate the twentieth anniversary of the assassination. The book was rejected a few weeks later in October 1982. Garrison then rewrote the book, renamed A Farewell to Justice , and it was also met with rejection by a variety of publishers. When Garrison told conspiracy radio host Ted Gandolfo about his book
