CNN show re Whitey Bulger not your average mainstream media piece
#1
I watched Whitey on CNN tonight (its airing again right now). If you have any interest in criminal justice at all you should invest an hour in watching this one. It is soundly critical of FBI / DOJ, the way they handle and protect informants, and exposes widespread corruption, wholesale manufaturing of paper "evidence", exposes the lies they tell the Judicial Branch and the victims they are supposed to be protecting. It is quite reminiscent of many of the topics we discuss here with respect to JFK and other assassinations and thier coverups, the relationship between law enforcement and organized crime from Hoover forward (which certainly played a part in Iran/Contra), and the lies about surveillance that the FBI told then (and if we believe Snowden, that practice is still continuing today under the guise of "parallel investigations")

Although the show is just about Bolger, you can see the seams and flaws in the law enforcement. Let's hope this signals a greater interest in MSM about exposing corruption and deceit. Let's give the show a big audience to give MSM a reason to take up more such stories.

James Tracy: "There is sometimes an undue amount of paranoia among some conspiracy researchers that can contribute to flawed observations and analysis."

Gary Cornwell (Dept. Chief Counsel HSCA): "A fact merely marks the point at which we have agreed to let investigation cease."

Alan Ford: "Just because you believe it, that doesn't make it so."
