Discovery Channel's 'The Lost Tapes' was pretty good. It followed the assassination via recorded transmissions. What struck me the most about it was Clint Hill's transparent holding back from saying he saw a huge void in the back of Kennedy's head. What is plainly obvious to anyone watching Hill's comments is his avoidance of saying there was a large wound in the back of the head and obvious missing brain. Instead he said "Kennedy was obviously 'hit' in the back of the head" and did exactly what Dr Jones did, gesturing to the back of the head in the precise location Dr Jones did. Further along Hill said Kennedy's wounds were obviously unsurvivable, but you could tell he was refraining from saying "I could see most of his brains were blown out the back of his head".
Turner Classic Movies is having a JFK Night. 'Primary' was an interesting film documentation of JFK's Wisconsin campaign against Humphrey. 'Adventures On The New Frontier' was a film documentary of Kennedy's daily business in the White House in Cinema verite form. After director Robert Drew and DA Pennebaker did a good job on 'Primary' JFK trusted them for the White House film. What was interesting about this film is it really emphasized how important Kennedy's Africa policy was.

I watched the midnight show on TCM '4 Days In November' from 1964. It was a grand tribute to the assassination however it was an official story job where JFK and Oswald were tucked into their graves and Oswald as the 'twisted' assassin was sealed. The film was a good visual depiction of the military football team in parade dress one would have to fight uphill against if attempting to investigate the real truth about the assassination. Don't let CIA's murder of JFK get in the way of our parade.

2 hours of CNN JFK trash heaping followed by 4 hours of History Channel trash heaping. I'm pooped.
The History Channel propaganda was an interesting desperate attempt at the final word on the 50th by pretending the last 50 years of research never happened and having professional liars come on and craftily skirt the evidence. You can scan their website for the names of the criminals involved. They are plenty. Mostly Bugliosi, Posner, and McAdams-based but a few fresh new CIA shills in there for new blood. The idea was to dance around veiled suggestions of the true conspiracy while always returning to the central skeletal structure of the Warren Report as the factual basis. The History Channel last 48 hours of Oswald program admitted Fritz knew Oswald had been trained by somebody in interrogation methods. This of course means the Warren Commission was wrong, however the show preferred to say we will never know. Me personally, I think DPD straight out knew Oswald was CIA.
The crime of this program is a truthful program could be made of equal length that would destroy everything they spent 2 hours fooling you with. America isn't a well place. I guess the theme here is whoever can get control of the television with the best propaganda.

4 Days is worth watching for all of the vintage footage of places in Dallas that have either changed or no longer exist.

They ran the CNN propaganda shows again for the 51st. You know the same shows that had Bugliosi, Dallek, Caro, Max Holland, Priscilla Johnson, Rosemary James, etc. without CNN informing the public they were all paid CIA shills. These will probably be the shows used as the final word.
One thing that I noticed even stronger this time was that if you put expert voice stress linguistic forensic analysis on Oswald's police station statements you would find they perfectly fit an innocent man who had just the right inflection in his voice of knowing a lot more but not being able to say anything. That's what Warren Commission apologists do, is take advantage of the slight stress and pause in Oswald's voice to say he's guilty when the real reason for that pause is his knowledge of CIA involvement. The exact same thing goes for the Dallas cop who is asked "Did you know Jack Ruby?"

They had the movie based on Bill O'Riley's book on here the other night.'Killing Kennedy' I think it was called. Looked like a p.o.s so switched channels after 10 minutes.

Was that the one with Rob Lowe playing JFK? Anyway, if it was based on O'Reilly's book, the POS description is a given.

I have recorded, but not yet watched, the episode of The Sixties covering the assassination. I noticed from a different episode, the one covering Civil Rights in the US, that Tom Hanks is one of the producers. Therefore I don't have high hopes for the Assassination episode.

The assassination episode is horrible. I watched it several months ago. Now I refrain from watching anything on Mockingbird media on this subject.
