Post 256 is for all to consider at their leisure.

Oh, I see, so are we to presume dumping these makes you look like you have a clue? ;)

Here, you might note the tasty bit referencing a WDSU-TV reporter commenting to the new Orleans office of the FBI. The Memo discussing it is a teletype dispatch marked urgent and dated 5/18/67 to the Director [of the FBI](62-109060) and the Dallas office and From: New Orleans (89-69) Subject: "RE NEW ORLEANS TEL THIS DATE". The commentary specifically states:

"A local FBI agent reported that Richard Townley, WDSU-TV, New Orleans, remarked to a special agent of the New Orleans office last evening that he had received instructions from NBC, New York, to prepare a one hour TV special on Jim Garrison with the instruction 'shoot him down'."

An article mentioning this is here. Probe magazine, the link I provided earlier, has followed up on these documents and has published a great deal based on them since the latest round at declassifying and release of the UNredacted documents.

You might bother to read some of the evidence and while you're at it, resarch on Walter Sheridan of NBC, his intermediary, Herbert Miller, and Millers part in shuttling defense documents for Clay Shaw to the CIA. You might also check out the Phelan evidence recently released and unredacted showing that he was an informant for the FBI against Garrison. It's amazing what you can learn in 20 minutes if you open your eyes and pretend you don't know as much as you think you do.

Where is the evidence that NBC-New York was directed by the government to instruct Richard Townley to "shoot" Garrison down? And why do you think this is related to a cover-up concerning the assassination, and not some other intelligence matter?

All of this is based on the assumption that Garrison was about to reveal the truth about the assassination, and that the government was out to stop him from doing so. Whatever shenanigans may have been going on with the CIA, they weren't worried about the revelation of a plot to kill Kennedy. Something else perhaps. New Orleans, and the Garrison Investigation
