Damn I guess I am a lunatic conspiracy theorist. Who knew?
The huge point is that he could have saved her. He should have saved her. Kennedy left her to die. What kind of human would do that?
Protecting the Legacy of the LYIN of the Senate.
BTW - Ted Kennedy made colluding with the Russians a Democrat tradition.
If this Guy’s daughter was the one left trapped to die a horrible death in Teddy’s Oldsmobile, I doubt he would be calling this a Tragedy.
“-———————so one tampers with his life at the peril of turning it into tawdry melodrama.’
His life WAS a tawdry melodrama.

Liberals are so cute when they try to make believe they are relevant. Here’s a tip NY Slimes no one but the half wits that read your rag believe this was a hit piece.
I have a diehard Democrat friend who lives in the midst of Kennedys in NYS, and even she recognizes them and their legends for what they are.

Ohohohoho! The NYTimes is gonna get letters!
Then again, the Kennedy-clan regularly parked their dumber spawn in New York elected offices. Now the Clinton’s do it too. They probably are secretly embarrassed and are throwing out a perfunctory defense.
The movie is as objectively factual as I think any portrayal of this incident possibly could be. It was as if the writers and producers set out to adapt the Wikipedia article on Chappaquiddick to the big screen as faithfully as possible. It is like "The Passion of Christ" in its historical detail. Although the acting and production quality were all top notch, I found the portrayal to be too generous to Ted Kennedy. He was projected as an abused son with a well meaning but weak moral conscience.
There were several flashback sequences offering a variety of interpretations. Only at the end were there two, less than a second each, glimpses of anything remotely sexual. The first was of a sympathetic Mary Jo Kopechne reaching out to caress Ted Kennedy's face and then one of her clothed upper body laying on the hood of his car. No mention was ever made of the actual police report of her missing panties.
Ted Kennedy was a sociopath who left his young mistress to die a miserable death in a misguided attempt to save his own political career. He waited ten hours to report the incident while the diver who found her body still grasping the back seat in the remaining pocket of air estimated she could have been saved had Ted Kennedy reported the incident in the first three to four hours. The movie didn't explain this fact either. Despite the wailing of this New York Slimes writer, this movie goes easy on the memory of this monster.
