A friend sent me the following, under the title "I wonder...," but I couldn't answer his question, so I throw it open: Is this the famous SIS dissident in his training years?

Quote:From a copy of one of Paul Hoch's Echoes of Conspiracy newsletters circa 1986, re: the LWT TV programme, 'On Trial: Lee Harvey Oswald'.

"Prior to the filming, I talked with (and consulted for) some of the LWT people, primarily producer Mark Redhead and researcher Richard Tomlinson..."

If it is, shines a whole new light on a number of issues, not least the probity of the programme makers!

I have doubts that it is one and the same Paul. Or at least if it is, it doesn't detract from his street cred.

I know someone who worked with Tomlinson on a number of projects after he outed Six. He is (or at least was - I'm going back 7/8 years or so) so far out in the cold because of his "betrayal" that he was perpetually penniless and survived on the kindness of work generated for him by a few in the media.

I'd like to know for sure. Pretty interesting, don't you think, if SIS had deployed a trainee to work on such a doc?
