The American Press Covers Jfk's Murder, And The Impossible Comes To Pass, Donald E. Wilkes Jr.

Popular Media

Almost from the moment Dallas police arrested Lee Harvey Oswald two hours after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy on Friday, Nov. 22, 1963, the American news media establishment began trumpeting as proven fact the story that Oswald was the killer. This article looks at how Russian and Cuban press's view of the assassination was diametrically opposed to that of the American press.

The Single-Assassin Theory, The Media Establishment And The Cia, Donald E. Wilkes Jr. Nov 2016

The Single-Assassin Theory, The Media Establishment And The Cia, Donald E. Wilkes Jr.

Popular Media

We have long known that, criminally, outrageously and repeatedly, the Central Intelligence Agency stonewalled official government investigations of the JFK assassination. But we also now know that for the last half-century, using its numerous and influential assets and supporters in the mainstream media, the CIA has engaged in a clandestine crusade to preserve, protect, and defend the Warren Report’s sole-assassin claim from criticism, even when the criticism is warranted. This article delves into how these two entities have provided disinformation to the public.

Lee Harvey Oswald And Ted Cruz's Father, Donald E. Wilkes Jr.

Popular Media

Recently, stunning accusations have been made against Rafael Cruz, father of recent presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz. It is alleged that in New Orleans in 1963 the elder Cruz accompanied Lee Harvey Oswald while Oswald was handing out pro-Fidel Castro “HANDS OFF CUBA!” leaflets. It is further alleged that there is photographic proof of this. Finally, it is alleged that because of his connections with Oswald Rafael Cruz may have been involved in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Scholarly Works

A perhaps unlikely leader, Edna Gleason, organized California’s retail pharmacists and coordinated trade networks to monitor and enforce Resale Price Maintenance (RPM) contracts, a system of price-fixing, then known as “fair trade.” Progressive jurists, including Louis Brandeis and institutional economist E.
