Jim DiEugenio reviews author Gary Lawrence's attempt at an overview of the major theories about the John Kennedy assassination. He sees it as a good idea that did not quite succeed as planned.

Kaitlyn Tiffany's book has now attracted more MSM attention. First it was Ash Carter and Air Mail. This time it’s a smear job on Shirley Martin in The New Yorker.

Bart Kamp has written a photographic essay on Lee Oswald’s visit to Helsinki, Finland, on the next-to-last leg of his alleged defection to Russia.  No writer has written at this length and utilized such diverse and underutilized sources as this work does.

Jim DiEugenio writes a letter to Ash Carter, features editor at Air Mail. Ash did something that his father Graydon never did as longtime editor of Vanity Fair: publish two negative articles on JFK in the space of a month.

Ash Carter has now doubled down on his phony Cliff  Krauss article about JFK and Vietnam. He now goes after the early critics of the Warren Report, doing everything except measuring the evidence they discovered for Oswald's innocence.

The MSM continues to disguise what JFK was doing in Vietnam. The latest attempt is by Cliff Krauss in Graydon Carter's Air Mail, and it is pure hokum.

Kaitlyn Tiffany chronicles the early years of the critical community, focusing on Shirey Martin, Maggie Field and Sylvia Meagher. It is a decidedly mixed bag. And Jim DiEugenio explains why in his review.

Rep. Anna Luna continues her public hearings on government secrecy. This time, the topic was the CIA's MK/Ultra program on mind control. She deserves praise, but this hearing missed a chance to explore the RFK case.

Jim DiEugenio addresses President Trump's two speeches in celebration of the 250th anniversary of America.  Trump is suggesting that progressive Democrats are communists.  John and Robert Kennedy would have differed.

Thomas Dehel proffers a rather unique take on the murder of John Kennedy. Somehow, Luis Somoza was a major player. He relies on Gerry Hemming and Gilberto Alvarado in large part.
