The Assassination of Robert Kennedy - USA, 1992
Producer : Tim Tate
Executive Producer : Chris Plumley
Editor : Richard L. Hohman
Duration : 52 minutes
Language : English



DiEugenio - a man who would have us believe that a mythical entity known as "the liberal wing of the CIA" backed RFK - passed some pretty shrewd judgments on the relative merits of Tim Tate's effort (when compared to Shane O'Sullivan's) in this CTKA piece:

A guestion from Jim D below:

Thanks and hope this turns out better than SImkin.

Can you ask RIgby though as to when I ever wrote that RFK was backed
by "the liberal wing of the CIA". I don't recall writing that. Does
he have a source.

BBC RFK Update

by James DiEugenio

June 2007

An interesting question is why was Rabern at the Ambassador that night? If he was a covert operator, was he from the liberal wing of the CIA who supported RFK?

The line has baffled me since I read it: All the CIA "liberals" spent late 1967-early 1968 getting "Clean for Gene"!

Thanks for posting my question to Rigby.

That quote he uses does not mean what he takes it to mean. In the
context I stated it I was trying to figure out the Ayers/Rabern/
O'Sullivan theory of why Rabern was at the Ambassador that night.,
since he would not reveal his real reason for being there, if he was.
O'Sullivan never explained it. Neither did Rabern. Neither did Ayers.
So I was only throwing that out as a guess as to why he was there. I
actually did not really believe that was the reason. Now that the
other part of O'Sullivan's thesis has fallen-Morales, Campbell and
Johannides were likely not there--then Rabern's excuse is pretty much
non existent. Which is what I actually thought all along-- if he was
there at all.

Also, can you tell Rigby that the version of Tim Tate's RFK special he
is referring to is the Americanized one shown on cable TV. The one I
refer to in my essay is the original British version which is about
35 minutes longer and even better.

Well, let's hope Obama is the real thing.

Fair enough - but you can see why I was puzzled. And thanks for the info re: the Tim Tate RFK special - I had no idea it differed from the one I had first watched back in the early 90s.
