Yes, it is Stone’s movie, he gets to do as he pleases. Apparently Stone doesn’t care about reality and how Ruth Paine really was. Anyone who thinks they are watching what really happened when viewing Stone’s movie is both naive and ignorant of the facts.
I contacted Ken Burns a few years ago to ask if he would produce a documentary on the JFK assassination as an antidote for Stone’s movie. The response was that he was way too busy already with other subjects. And that others had also made the same request.

When asked about Shaw and the abuses by Garrison, Stone replied, "Sometimes in a war you have to sacrifice innocent people." I think he didn't care whether Ruth Paine was innocent. Or Shaw; as he implicitly admitted with his response. Paine or Shaw were going to be a casualty in his larger war against the MIC/Deep State/War State monsters who he thinks ran (and run) the country and killed JFK. Collateral damage so to speak.
I think most of the conspiracy crowd, the hard core online activists, are like that. They think they are saving the country or exposing a great crime and if innocent people sometimes get hurt along the way that's how things go. The ends-justifies-any means approach.
