Fred Litwin on Paranoid History

I was a guest this week on Joseph Flatley's podcast to discuss the new JFK assassination files.

Welcome to the latest bonus episode of "A Paranoid's History of the United States." I'm your host, Joseph L. Flatley. On this podcast, we navigate the murky waters between verified government conspiracies and outlandish theories, attempting to bring clarity to a world often obscured by misinformation and disinformation.

While our bonus content is typically reserved for paid subscribers, we've decided to make this timely conversation "free to the people," so to speak.

Today, I'm joined by Fred Litwin, an author who has been researching the JFK assassination as long as I've been alive.

As detailed in his book I Was A Teenage JFK Conspiracy Freak, Fred began his quest for the truth after watching the Zapruder film as a teenager.

In our conversation, Fred discusses the recent release of JFK assassination files, the role of secrecy in fueling conspiracy theories, how the KGB actively spread disinformation about the assassination, and his assessment of figures like Mark Lane and Oliver Stone. We also explore what might have motivated Lee Harvey Oswald to assassinate President Kennedy.

Also, be sure to check out my previous interview with Fred, for an in-depth discussion of Oliver Stone and Mark Lane, among many others:
