NEW AARC Lecture Series – 2024/2025

The AARC is now dedicating a year-round series of lectures and presentations by distinguished authors, historical researchers and notable personalities associated with the study of political assassinations.

These talks are offered with the purpose of having on-going access to important research developments as they emerge in our quest to become better educated about the tragic mechanisms by which our lives and times are influenced.

In the words of the distinguished British scholar Malcolm Blunt, speaking about the death of President Kennedy, “Jesus Christ, what we lost when we lost that man.”

NOVEMBER 1959 – NOVEMBER 1963

KENT BIFFLE and the FORT WORTH PRESS

LECTURE 8

BILL SIMPICH

The Dallas Journalists & Law Enforcement that Molded the Assassination Coverage

Bill Simpich continues with part 2 of his research into the complicity of journalists in the JFK assassination, the careers that profited from this crime, and what happened to the journalists who tried to take a stand – with a special focus on two Dallas/Fort Worth journalists, Kent Biffle (Part 1) and Thayer Waldo (Part 2), and their relationship with both the case and the Oswald family from 1959 to 1967.  There will also be an emphasis on how a few law enforcement officers like Dallas police officers George Lumpkin, Pat Gannaway, and Jerry Hill, Assistant DA Bill Alexander, and local Secret Service agent Mike Howard succeeded in manipulating the national media into demonizing Lee Oswald as the lone assassin in the first hours after the assassination and afterwards.
