Posner is a fraud........

Posted on 11/22/2003 5:13:43 PM PST by scotsman1

Whether Oswald shot Kennedy,or not,I beseech everyone to do their research on one Gerald Posner.Firstly,he is an ex-lawyer turned writer and novelist.HE IS NOT A HISTORIAN!.Secondly,this is a man who claimed Menegle was alive in 1982,and he had tracked him down.........three years after his death at sea from a stroke!.Lastly,look at the website www.assassinationweb.com..........this clearly shows that not only is his best seller 'Case Closed' full of errors,it is at worst actually fraudulent.........

Without regard to the JFK issue, I emphatically agree. Posner is a blowhard who is full of himself.

After a few minutes of watching Posner on TV I came to the conclusion that the man was a charlatan.

He was spinning to levels unseen, even in the slick willie era!

I must confess, I watched Jesse Ventura's program on MSNBC this evening. He named Posner as the "Dork of the Week". Apparently, Posner was supposed to appear on the program to debate some of the other guests about his "findings", but cancelled out shortly before air time.

Wrong, wrong, wrong.

He has done more to debunk these whacko conspiracy theories about the Kennedy assassination than any person alive.

Sorry,I dont believe in conspiracy theories either,but he is simply a fraud........his ' debunking' is riddled with more holes than the titanic the above evidence and the evidence i gave in the larger jfk post is surely enough........his books are error-strewn,fraudulent at worst(see 'case closed' ) and, again,he is NOT a proper historian.Please Az Joe,do your research before you post.......SIMPLY FOLLOW THE LINK I GAVE HERE.......

He cancelled because he found out at the last moment that Vetura had invited a known whack-job to be on his program. Posner stated that he would not be part of an effort to give credence to a woman who had long ago been discredited. He then cancelled.

while ventura is not a historian, if ventura said posner is a dork, that alone conclusively proves that jfk conspired in his own assasination.

Posner is a fraud, Case Closed.

Did you hear his testimony in the OJ civil trial? Real embarrassing sham that was exposed by Goldman's attorney.
