In the present day world, there's some                                    
interesting phenomena at work, where
there are voices out there insisting                        NY_NAG
that Oswald Alone remains the best
theory, and some of these voices belong         Like MacNeil and Lehrer:
to people who should know better.                                       
                                                [ref]

I think we're seeing a phenomena
where going with the Warren
Commission (while "maintaining an
open mind", of course) is taken as     Why wouldn't someone with an
a badge of Seriousness... and in       open mind buy the conclusion of
addition to that, I think there        the later investigation by the
are signs that there are hired         House Select Committee on
shills pushing this line on            Assassinations in 1976?
internet message boards.
                                       (I keep trying to find someone willing
                                       to say that those guys were part of a
                                       conspiracy to fabricate a story about
                                       a conspiracy.)

Here's another example
of a Serious guy:

   Thomas J. Whalen, Nov 12, 2013:   [ref]

   "... they generally fail to take into account
   the massive governmental documentation that has     (None of which Whalen
   been released on the subject over the years. And    sees fit to mention.)
   if you review the available material, you will
   come to the unmistakable conclusion that
   President Kennedy was the victim of no grand        The '76 committee
   conspiracy ..."                                     neglected to do this?
                                                       Someone prevented
                                                       them from seeing the
                                                       material?

    Down in the comments we have a
    "Jacob Jones" saying:

    "And don't listen to these quacks, your
    first point was absolutely correct.. Anyone
    who has an open mind, and has studied the         Knows it? Not just
    evidence, knows Oswald is culpable.."             a best guess?
                                                      And that Congressional
                                                      committee in '76...
      My personal conviction is that
      that is not the remark of a real
      human being: it seems like a
      hired gun blowing smoke.

   This alone is pretty interesting: is
   there actually a public relations
   campaign here, a second cover-up, to      WEAK_HEADS
   prop up the first one?

   Who would care at this date?
   Why would someone think this               A common line is "we will
   is worth doing?                            never know the truth", but
                                              it rings a little hollow
                                              when you realize someone is
                                              worried we might.


            You can understand why someone          
            would send out hired political                                     
            propagandists during election        This is a phenomena I feel     
            season, you can see why              like I've seen before-- Why  
            every-other Paul Krugman column      did they worry about Gary  
            would attract anxious comments       Webb re-opening the          
            from people worried that someone     Iran-Contra controversies  
            might consider raising a tax...      years after they had       
                                                 apparently blown over?     
            But why isn't JFK dead yet?
