Ventura Show Censored?

[Peter Lemkin]

Peter,

I think I've been less than clear in my previous post.

More directly: If "they" lower the hammer on a piece of junk science, they elevate that junk science within our larger community.

How might "they" reinforce Hunt's disinformation?

Simple: By appearing to be dismayed by its dissemination.

Again, I realize that it was the FEMA material and not the JFK episode that allegedly drew "their" wrath. But again, once "they" demonize Ventura, all that he has produced takes on a level of significance it does not deserve.

I hope I've been more artful in this post.

Got it. Look, I agree and I mildly disagree. I wish this 'show' or an infinitely better one was being done by, say, John Pilger or any number of others we could name - especially someone really expert on JFK on the JFK stuff. I think we'd both agree the results would much more accurate, freer of questionable to known disinfo tucked in. Pilger and others like him make excellent films, well researched and produced and without the sensationalism that degrades. He and others we could think of would also really do their research and not rush through a complex subject too fast to get it correct......Question is -would it be seen by many. Most have never heard of Pilger, Peter Dale Scott, Dick Russel or others who could do better jobs. I guess you are trying to make the point that the net effect will be negative. I'm not sure. Some books on JFK that I disagree with the main point or just some major point are still in my collection, as they also contain some information, some interview, some analysis that I feel has value. Ventura surely will not win us the war.....but he may get some involved in reading and thinking for themselves. I think that is all we can hope for from him and his show. The problem with such a show is it is too frequent to do a a proper job on anything - unless it had a staff and budget like the Pentagon. Charles, I hope you get the nod for such a show - with a slot every third month. Meantime, we have to deal with what cards we've been dealt. I don't think Ventura is intentionally screwing things up - even if he may be screwing some things up by the speed and sloppiness if the research. As to net effect, I think only time will tell.

As you correctly point out, a lot of junk science has been elevated on purpose, and that is why we always seem to be fighting like salmon to get upstream on these issues. Ventura is a personal friend of Russells. I have NO idea if Dick is consulted on the JFK stuff - or even his take on this particular matter, but I'd bet he'd be cautious to use it, for exactly the reasons you cite or suspect. I don't know who is researching and writing for Ventura...do we? Is Jesse leading his own path on all the shows, or is there a team - or a Svengali?
