JFK Assassination Forum

You make no sense, Storing.

Of course you didn't say, "Rather is only about 60% correct in his description of what's in the film." I said it, and it's the truth.

I've already watched the broadcasts on YouTube. FWIW, they differ.

You wrote: "If those telecasts were not as Rather remembers them, he could have easily set the record straight."

What are you even talking about?

It's not that those weekend-of-the-assassination telecasts are or are not as Rather remembers them, it's that his depiction in those telecasts of what is in the Zapruder film is only about 60% correct.

D'oh.

   Your sentence currently under discussion was Not a declarative statement. It ended with a ?
   So now you want to inform this Forum what Rather remembers? "Carnac The Magnificent" you ain't.
   You are basing your 60% scoring of the Rather 1963 description of the Zapruder Film vs the Current Zapruder Film that we frequently view today. You really do Not know with certainty that Rather viewed the same/identical Z Film that we view today. You're assuming, and we all know what happens when making an assumption.

I have never claimed that "Rather is only about 60% Correct in his description of what's in the film". Rather's original broadcasts the weekend of the assassination are available to see/hear on You Tube. Plus, Rather at 93 yrs old is still alive. If those telecasts were not as Rather remembers them, he could have easily set the record straight.

To further show what is going on with the Education Forum, just today I was suspended from posting in the forum for 8 days by a moderator named "W. Niederhut," an ardent Prouty believer and a 9/11 Truther, for saying that Prouty had no role in writing NSAM 263 and the McNamara-Taylor report and that writing NSAMs and cabinet-level trip reports was not part of his responsibilities. Of course, it didn't matter that what I said was perfectly true. This is another example of how fringe the Education Forum is becoming because of its far-left moderators.

  How about we STOP dealing in your world of "probably's"?

Why was Rather only about 60% correct in his description of what's in the film? Did the bad guys alter 40% of it?

Is that your stock answer ? Too bad none of the times stamps can be relied upon.
So your starting time is bogus.

So then you DO foolishly believe that it took Scoggins about 16 minutes to reach his dispatcher in order to ask for help.  Okay.
