John Fitzgerald Kennedy (433)

Max Holland and Donald Carpenter vs. Jim Garrison and the ARRB
Written by James DiEugenio The most inadvertently humorous part of Carpenter’s pathetic essay comes at the end.

Mark Lane Part III: The Ryder/Russo Graveyard Smear
Written by James DiEugenio As one can see, Mark Lane was such an effective critic of the Warren Report that his ghost is haunted by its shameless defenders even in death. It is they who are guilty of what they say he was: namely, presenting the facts in a one-sided, polemical way, declares Jim DiEugenio.
