JFK Declassified: Tracking Oswald

A speculative fiction by a propagandist trying to prove the narrative CIA already claimed. He does admit CIA covered up info in the JFK investigation. Letting the very misinformation & propaganda wing which lied about the killing of the president be host of a show about new details is not journalism but shady at best. Shows like American Ripper speculate wild theories & try to prove it in a harmless entertainment but the murder of a US president is more recent and tasteless to treat unscientifically.

HI, Has anyone read her book, Lee & Me? Apparently she was the girlfriend of Lee in 1963. I'm not sure of the validity of it but it is a pretty interesting read. Maybe there is info in it that wasn't researched that could help with timelines and names.

In the first episode Baer makes a big deal out of LBJ's 11/23/63 conversation with Hoover where he asks "Have you established any more about the visit to the Soviet embassy in Mexico in September?" Baer compares Oswald's visit to the Soviet Embassy to some modern day terrorist visiting ISIS headquarters. However on the LBJ Hoover transcript, Baer blacks out Hoover's response: "No, that's one angle that's very confusing, for this reason – we have up here the tape and the photograph of the man who was at the Soviet embassy, using Oswald's name. That picture and the tape do not correspond to this man's voice, nor to his appearance. In other words, it appears that there is a second person who was at the Soviet embassy down there." In other words, Baer knows that Oswald was impersonated in Mexico City, but hides that from the viewer. I guess it's true that no one ever really retires from the CIA.

Just looked in on one episode of this series. To anyone who has done even a little serious reading on JFK assassination, this show is lightweight at best. They got a few things right -- 1) Oswald as lone gunman 2) All shots from the rear 3) Gunshot acoustics not reliable because of echoes. But did Oswald have help escaping after the deed? If so, it was by the Keystone Cops. Get caught coming downstairs right after the shooting; get on a bus, goes wrong way, get off bus; take a cab to your rooming house, where lady sees you; walk down street in broad daylight while police are looking for you; duck into theater without paying. Some expert plan! Clearly he was winging his escape. If he had help escaping, how about - hey, meet us a block from the Depository building, hop in our car, we'll drive you out of town. How hard would that have been?

Another crock of crap from out of nowheresville...

Within 2 minutes of the first episode, ex-CIA spook Baer tells us that Oswald couldn't have shot JFK without support. No mention of possible Oswald innocence ('I am a patsy'), no mention of possible Mafia involvement, no mention of American intelligence agencies planning hits on pretty much anyone they please etc etc... So he instantly is relying on the 'lone nut + whoever' theory to tell us how it happened. Never mind that in a lot of other theories the CIA is the prime suspect all along. He never really mentions that little tidbit, so I assume the whole series is tainted from the beginning.

OK, so he believes Oswald was the shooter and he had help, bring in the 'experts' who agree with everything he says, and you got a pretty boring show actually. Full of information that he claims was 'just released', yet I know I've seen this stuff in almost every book/movie/documentary from 1963 on. And he is the voice of the CIA. Oh boy....

Boring, repetitive, little or no new information and a conclusion that still holds true today, 'it's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma...'

Watch the Beverly Hillbillies for a better perspective of the JFK assassination... At least that was entertainment...
